ah, sigh………………
This surgery recovery thing has its peaks and its valleys, that’s for sure. We had a very full day yesterday and evening, which I’ll talk about in a bit (and yes Ann, share pictures! , but this was also Travis’ first day back to work since my surgery. I think he [...]
A BAD IDEA!!! I twisted my upper body very slightly to try and crack my lower back and now I’m in just a wee bit of pain. Don’t think my lower abdomen was quite ready that.
Travis and I came over to my parents house with the kids to watch some football, which so far has [...]
Well, in less than a week I will officially join the “uterus-free” club! I get a few butterflies in my stomach thinking about it, but on Tuesday I will have a total hysterectomy!
