  • Surreal Moment

    I don't want to sound nuts, but we all have our little quirks. I was laying on the couch, couldn't sleep and not because of pain. I just thought out of the blue I can't believe that I finally did this. I felt proud and brave. I am actually having times where I am in less pain than before the surgery. I only took 3 percocet all day yesterday.
    On a more comical note I had to watch the soap network last night for the return of Genie Francis. I haven't really watched it in years. Those of us who are of age can probably remember watching the wedding. Sorry this is off the subject of the forum.

      Hi Dawn,

      I have to agree with you and Singer, it does take a lot of strength and courage to have and get through this surgery. It's not easy physically or mentally.

      When you have a bad day, try and remember how brave and strong you really are!!!
