I hope the surgery went well Marilyn, and that you aren't in any pain.

I'm sending you hugs.

Hello, Everyone!! Thank you so very much for all your well wishes and prayers. The surgery went very well. Couldn't have asked for better. Everyone was so nice to us, and went without a hitch. We were there at 8 a.m. and were on the way home by 10:30 a.m. They put a long lasting local anesthetic in my hand to help eliminate pain and two of my fingers are still a bit numb from it. I have a splint on my right wrist so it's kinda hard to type. Have not needed any pain pills. Can't get my bandage wet, and I'm not supposed to lift anything over a couple of lbs with my right hand, so I'm pretty restricted on what I can do. They did give us some big long plastic gloves tape over the bandage when I shower which is working very well.

We go back this Thursday for them to remove the splint and bandage from my right hand and do the surgery on my left. I'm alergic to the adhesives used on steri strips so they closed my little cuts with a stitch. So they will be removing my stitches, too. They have been so thoughtful of everything, trying to make the experience as pleasant as possible. Even gave me a long stemmed rose when we left, and called us when we got home to make sure we made it okay and see if we had any questions.

The only bad thing was that we got a call a couple of minutes before they took me back for surgery that a very special and dear friend of ours had just passed away. She had been in the hospital for 3 weeks, part of the time in ICU, but was doing better. This was, of course, very sad news. They gave us a few minutes alone before taking me back.

Typing is getting a little easier as I go, but not sure how I'll do after Thursday. Will try to read your posts so can catch up with all of you!!
