That brings to mind a recent video about cultural differences, it included crossing fingers for luck,

Fingers and toes crossed but legs need to be kept straight for the surgery and the recovery period afterwards.
So even if everything goes well . It will be slow going for many weeks after ,have been told. :| :mrgreen:

Good luck on your surgery.

I would say it won't be as bad as you think it will be.

"Are we there yet?" :lol: May even be done and conscious by now.
Expect it will be a bit before you are back to pedaling the generator bike so you'll have energy to get on the internet.
May the healing be soon and full.

Thank you Temp123, ……….okay it’s done by the grace of God and some good surgical team members . :hail: :hail:
. Am on the other side of the surgery .. My mind wanted to over analyze everything . :nerdy:
And I did not wake up during the surgery .. :D
Bless all you alls hearts for keeping me in your thoughts and prayers .. it is a bit more painful afterwards than I expected . But at least it is behind me now .. I think it was locked out of joint during the surgery . So am hoping this will put an end to that issue . Had figured recovery to be a issue , but will possibly have one person checking on me .
They wish me to be off my feet as much as possible for 3 days up to a week but can use my own judgement . :chin: :chin:
So we are back… and having high hopes for a good recovery. :|
.Anxiety level was off the charts :skull: had home sideswiped by a F-1 tornado night before and power and phone went out , Most all damage appears to have been plant life here and a major limb fell on the house , have not tried to assess damage from that. So I was in a meltdown all that day mostly, as the tornado came at 1:30 am :cry: . But was eventually able to get intouch that day with surgical people . :roll:
Borrowing others cellphone. Tried to focus on the surgery .Power got restored by that evening , and phone off the day of the surgery . But did have cell,WiFi ,access most of that day. :) …a thanks to you all again ! :heart:

Yay. You are here! :D

House can be seen to again as your main house is ok. You need to recover first. One thing at a time.

Yay, Jakki!

I know damage to the gardens will be hard to take. I try to focus on what did survive. (Had two nights of hard freezes in Feb.)

Please rest. While you were sleeping, your body went through hell. Take the pain medication BEFORE it starts. Don’t wait till you can’t stand it. Your body needs rest and to be pain free in order to heal.

:heart: :heart: :heart:
