Today is Tuesday the 29th of May...5 days since surgery. As my husband said I made it through....1st two days were unbearable!! I prayed to God to stop the pain. I wondered did I make the right decision. Never have experienced so much pain in all my 48 years. Got home yesterday afternoon....have been able to reduce my pain meds alot....just can't sleep more than 2 hours at a time because the bladder gets so full the pain to try and get up is awful. I look pregnant...bigger tummy now than before the surgery...pretty swollen, but it will be fine in time. Trying to walk around the house as much as I can and continue to deep breath. well....I guess that's about all for now..I'll check in later Nancy Chandler

Nancy had her surgery Fri morning 5/25/01. She went in the OR at approx 7:30AM. The Surgeron, Dr Jacobs, started at 8:00. He came out to give us the good news at 9:15AM, one hour and 10 minutes, after recovery she was in her room at 11:30. Her favorite person right now is the nurse that bring the pain killer every two hours. She and I would like to thank you all for your comment, thoughts, prayers. She should be home on Monday, when I am sure she will be getting back to you all in more detail. All our thanks, Don Chandler (Nancy's husbsand)

Nancy, best wishes for your upcoming surgery. I had mine at Abbott-NW six months ago, and I have never had a single regret. Fortunately, the nervousness is over with when you wake up in the recovery room to your new life.
