We recently took my daughter for her 1 year post surgery follow up and everything looks well. They do not want to see her again for another year. When I asked about the wrestling unit coming up in school, the surgeon advised against it - more as a precaution than anything else. Other than that and bungee jumping, she's ok to continue with all activities.
I still worry. Today she went toboganning with a friend and this is the first time she's done that in well over a year so I was a little anxious. But she came home and was happy and said it was a lot of fun. I am so relieved to see her back to normal.
To those of you either facing surgery or just recovering from surgery, stay positive and keep the faith - things will turn out alright and life will feel normal again soon.
