Best wishes, and even more healing vibes for an improved @bright&shiny v.2!
Just had a lovely phone chat with @bright&shiny's husband and received updates on lots of details.
Firstly, it seems that, at this point, the surgery has addressed the issue and all is going well. It's too early to say in a blanket sense - "all is well" - far too early - but things are definitely hopeful and B&S is handling the pain with guts and grace. She's very tired and it will be a long road (think - months, not weeks) till she is recovered - but so far things are going about as well as can be expected for someone who had OHS 4 days ago! Apparently she was up and walking a few times today, tho it was both painful and exhausting.
At this point there seem to be no red flags and scans look both positive and hopeful.
A few more days should see her out of hospital, but staying locally to the hospital for follow up appts, and by the time she leaves the area to fly home (3 weeks post op) she should be feeling much better - tho achy and very, very tired.
Continued prayers and well wishes would be great as we see her climb this hurdle and return to 'better than she was before'.
Big hugs to you, @bright&shiny! <3
Thinking of you @bright&shiny. I’m hoping each day gets easier for you.
That is wonderful! So glad you could chat with her. As always, thanks for the updates!I had a short chat with @bright&shiny yesterday, and things are progressing. The recovery from this sort of surgery is slow, and there are inevitable complications, but I was so pleased to hear her voice!
Sitting and typing is a struggle, so I'm not sure when B&S will be able to come and type on this thread. but she told me she read ALL your comments - directly before going into surgery 12 days ago and that it buoyed her spirits. So....
Thank you to everyone!
