How's the patient? I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Hello, I'm doing good. My Thanksgiving was great. I went to my sisters house and I drank my shake with no problem while they enjoyed the wonderful food. I was so proud of my self. Today is my first day of soft foods. I had a egg and I mad a bad decision when I chose fruit. I purchased pineapple not thinking about how tough the meat would be to chew. So I'm off to the store later the day.

How's the patient? I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

I forgot to ask. How as your thanksgiving ?

My thanksgiving was wonderful, and now I am looking forward to surgery and the unknown that come along with it.

I was very nervous about the unknown after the surgery. So far the unknown for me is uneventful. Just planing what to eat. I don't care for leftovers so I was struggling with my list I can eat. I'm good now. I go back to work on Friday.

I am having my surgery with Dr. Davis on Jan 8th. My pre-op anesthesiologist appt. is today. I would love to hear more about how you guys are doing - so glad we are in this boat together and can share stories.

I actually pushed my stuff through with Tracy - I know she was ready to be done with me :-). I have had a great experience so far with the whole team.
