That was a pretty smart idea with the pills Jen. I am so glad you are doing well. Gives me hope for my own surgery for sure.

Hopefully you dont get to worn out from the lack of CPAP, but in the long run this will hopefully be a huge step in your treatment. Get well fast.

Jen.......

We were all curious about how you're doing. Thanks for the update!

You might want to consider using a blender to liquify a little food.

Glad to hear that you're doing alright. I hope you're soon back to normal, but don't rush it. Take it easy and get as much rest as you can!

Socknitser,

I had been thinking about you and wondering how it all went. I didn't see you were back online until today. I'm glad to hear things went well. Welcome back!

Hey guys, thanks for the well wishes! I have been making slow and steady progress. Gotta love darvocet. Still sleeping more than waking, pain is just a little bit better, but I have cut back significantly on the amount of meds I'm taking--not loving the dizzy sleepy feeling all day long.

I'm starting to eat more normal foods. Ate some hot dogs and with slow and careful chewing ate part of a Happy Meal a day ago. The craving for protein is overwhelming. Trying to eat soups and stuff when I can.

Harry spent the whole week at a my best friends house last week and now I'm contemplating asking if he can go back for a few more days because I'm shocked I'm not 100 percent recuped. I'm way too optimitstic for my own good.

Not much else to report. Keepin on keeping on.

Jen
