Still feeling awesome. No pain right now and I've done a total of 4 laps around my ward. After reading some of the stories of others I prayed for an easy surgery and recovery. I think I had the best luck ever!!

I'm still feeling fantastic!! When I first joined this site it was so helpful to read everyone's stories and experiences. It really prepared me for what to expect just in case. I'm just so blessed that it went so well and recovery has been smooth. Thank you for all of the support!! OH and P.S. I've completed 16 laps around my medical ward "block" because I feel so good!!
