Have you seen the little pieces of the people we have been?... Little pieces blowing gently on the wind... 11:11
Congratulations Sue! I am so happy for you. May your recovery be fast and without issues.
Congratulations Sue! So glad you came through with great results. So did you get a spaghetti dinner, like Kris got last week, for your first meal?
Be yourself. Everyone else is taken!
My vote is for another bowl of lil Mel's peanut butter ice scream ....
I am who I am... I'm happy...I mean truly to the bone happy...and at peace with myself for the first time ever. I'm confident and content as the woman I am.
Spaghetti, ice cream, manna from heaven--Hallelujah! Congratulations, dear Sue, on this lovely day to be reborn.

Time for a change.
Sue, I was thinking of you this morning, and I am so glad to know that it went well. So Happy for you !!!!
Congrats Sue . . . rest up.
Cheers
Marcelle
Best wishes Sue to a continued recovery!
That ice cream was amazing Jennifer!
So far, everything is feeling great! Will see Marci somewhere in the next couple of hours. Other than constantly having an urge to pee, everything else is doing well. Drains are not seeing much. Did find out the catheter wasn't draining and got distended and very uncomfortable real quick. That was an easy fix though. Should be on my feet starting tomorrow. Getting visitors, which is amazing, and my daughter is watching over me like a hawk. On a great path to this point.

Good for you Sue!! So happy...! I must say I was thinking of you all day...Glad it all went well. Now, rest up, and do what the Dr tells you!!
Seize the day. Life is short, and you're dead a long time...just sayin' ...
I could not be happier for you. I hope Ms. Bowers gives you a clean bill of health.
Ya so happy. For u so get your rest you go girl
Congrats Sue, look at all this attention you are getting!
Happy Birthday, Sue!
Life is an endless struggle full of frustrations and challenges, but eventually you find a hairstylist you like.
Welcome Sue to the first day of the rest of your life
Hope that your recovery is comfortable, take it easy
Listen carefully to what is said, quite often you can hear what is not being said
The joy of correcting a mistake can bring pain to another
Wonderful! Now follow instructions and don't be too ambitious with activities. Some ladies feel great, overdo, and regret it later!
Would love to be there to see you up and about. Please take it easy and not rush things. Did read through the users manual yet... Too soon I guess.
I am who I am... I'm happy...I mean truly to the bone happy...and at peace with myself for the first time ever. I'm confident and content as the woman I am.
I have seen some push it when they feel good and regret it. I haven't seen anyone push it when they felt good and say it was a good thing. So I will be taking it easy.
I have 55,000 miles on my car and haven't read the manual yet. We have a problem here Jennifer....
I don't think I will call it a birthday, but I remember all the key dates and times:

Time for a change.
Sue, I am so very happy for you and wish you a speedy and perfect recovery. You are living the dream so many of us wish we could experience. All the best.
We cannot change the direction of the wind, but we can adjust the sails.
And the dressing is off. Looks better than I expected this early on. Removing this dressing; another pain pill dose, and a nap and I feel a ton better. Time to go slow and easy...
Sue, so glad to hear you are on the healing side of all this now.
Take it slow and easy, best wishes to you for a fast recovery !!!
Way too Girly ! I couldn't smell the smoke, and now I'll watch the flames
Out on Parole ......Woo Hoo
I feel for ya girl, it can be quite uncomfortable for a while, but it gets better. Glad to hear things are going ok for you.
All I ever wanted was to be a girl. Is that really asking too much?
Checked out of the hospital today. Was an interesting spike in emotions as I got text messages that my seventh grandchild had been born and was looking at the first picture, when Marci walked in. So now a few days of hanging around the hotel room then I go to Marci's office to get the catheter taken out (yes, I still leave the seat up) and start dilation. A lot came together today as I started the day feeling rough, but then had the drain taken out and showered and felt a ton better afterwards.
So Marci has been fantastic. No surprise, one of the best, if not the best, in the business. Her staff has guided every step of the way perfectly. The hospital was great and the nurses were wonderful (I am used to overworked nurses just trying to keep up). A really great experience to this point. I have very little pain and it is mostly discomfort from swelling and a little around the stitches. Things are really looking good so far!
