So happy

Had my surgery today. Cried my eyes out the whole morning, but all of a sudden I woke up in recovery with LITTLE TO NO PAIN! Amazing. Barry gas pain either. Walking is very difficult, but I managed to go for a little walk today. Going to try each hour or two tomorrow. Never been so happy.

It was funny. I told them I was having an anxiety attack and they said "oh we'll give you a little Valium (and boy did that burn going through my iv in my hand..) and then I was still crying, still anxious. So we went to the OR. I don't even remember them giving me anything else haha

I'm so glad you had very little pain. I was the same. I know walking is challenging, but I promise it's one of the best things you can do.

Just keep swimming, sweetie! You're going to do great!

Yes. I had a lot of problems with it but tomorrow my parents will be at the hospital with me to help me get back walking. :)
