| Surgeon was pleased today...
1st he was glad to see me after the complications last week and the emt taking me to a different hospital.
he took out all of my staples, my incision sites look good, my bp was 105/79, so no bp meds for me.
He answered all my questions, took the time to listen and respond, it was so nice!
I have to have my crit checked on Friday just to be sure it's still showing as stable.
My 6 week check up is on March 15th
My weight on his scale today was 294.0 - I was soooo happy to see that!!! I'm under 300 pounds, and so very very happy!!!
It was so refreshing to be with a doc that was treating ME as a person, not as a chart - know what I mean??? Not that the docs at MGH didn't provide good care, they did - but it wasn't as personal
oh, and he said if I promise to teach sitting down and end class early if I'm tired, I can teach tomorrow night - now I just need to see if I can figure out how to connect my laptop up to the av system so I can use powerpoint instead of writing on the board.

thats awesome news Tricia, I know you feel good so far... some ppl can return to work earlier than others, I tell u i am taking a few more days off, I am so tired, get my son off to school by 9 and I am back in the bed till noon or later, hope this feeling will soon pass. i have an incision that was a hematoma and thats is still healing, my luck I return to work some kid kick me in it while I'm giving shots, not happening.. Glad to hear of your progress. Great work!!

Welcome to Twoderville - a place you're just passing through on your way to your true destination! It's a sign of progress, but Onederland is your real home!! You'll get there, but we always liken this journey to a train ride, not the Concorde!!  In your body's own good time, you'll reach her goal.
Good luck with advanced instructional technology tomorrow!!

I can see it taking you longer to get back to work - I'm behind a desk - I'll just have to limit my lifting - and stick to the limit - and I'm blessed that we have a couch in the back that I can rest on during lunch. My DH brings me to work in the morning - and he'll drop me at the door - the going home is the bigger issue - he's not always able to pick me up.
