Your father and family visited my home this morning. When I went out on the deck, there were three butterflies over my salvia plants.🦋🦋🦋😇😇😇

Since both Oodie and Xango’s husbands’ surgeries are in the morning, I hope we will hear from them before the day is over. Prayers will be flying around Florida tomorrow.🙏🙏

Hot and very humid in the ‘burgh through Wednesday. By Thursday it looks to be perfect weather, around 80, sunny, low humidity and low 60s at night. Husband leaves Thursday for his golf trip – not concerned about his weather, I just don’t want to stress over storms here.🤣

Relax and try to have a calm day. Sending love and hugs to you.💖🤗🌹

@xango

Please know that I will be thinking of you tomorrow. Been there, done that. There was a volunteer in the OR waiting room that kept me up to date on everything going on during surgery. About every 1/2 hour or so she gave me an update and the surgeon explained everything after it was done. Since my husband’s was done in the evening, he was not awake when I left the hospital at 10:30pm. The CIC nurse told me I could call anytime during the night for updates. I was very apprehensive going in the next morning. When I got there, my husband was up and already walking around. I was ecstatic! I hope that will be your experience.🙏🤗👍💖

@oodiebom

You know I will be thinking of you all day tomorrow. Starting on Tuesday you and your husband will be on the way to better days. I wish your husband the determination my husband had to get back to normal as quickly as possible. Yes, he used pain pills before therapy. Yes, he used Vitamin E and you can hardly see his scar. And, yes, look ahead to traveling north your optimistic goal.🙏🤗👍💗

Hi and thank you for your kind words and wishes. I was about to go to Costco to top our tank with some gas, but the timing is not good. It’s after three and by the time I get there it will be close to 4:30 pm and they close at 6 tonight. Instead, I may either stop at Sam’s on the way home tomorrow or on Tuesday. Hubby has Physical Therapy on Wednesday which gives me another option since they are a mile from Costco.

Hubby just read Alan Alda’s story on line. He went OMG !!! Yes, it is very scary and the symptoms are the same. I am doing a search for a different neurologist. To think that our surgeon recommended him and he has not even shared the outcome of the blood tests from last week. For that matter, he hasn’t even said thank you for the referral.

Oh yes, our desk is done. I am now working on laundry and the boxes. Never a dull moment in this household. 🍕🍔🌭🥡🍨🍦🍧

Hi. I’m getting ready to go to Costco and fill the tank. They have a few things that we need and are on special. This will be the last day hubby can sit behind the wheel. Just like your hubby, he has a six week wait. So, for now I will be the chauffeur for “Mr. Daisy.:

I realize you are cleaning up a storm because you expect the family to stay with you. Please, take some time for YOU. That is so important. Rest is so important for both of us. Without we will be two miserable people while the patient feels sort of OK. The showering with the special soap is necessary to keep the bacteria away. My hubby is using a liquid soap with a sponge. This might be similar to what your husband has as well. Hopefully, the nursing staff has explained all this to you.

I checked around hubby’s hospital also. There are a few, but I still would have to drive, though the ride is probably 8 minutes instead of 20. But as you say, it’s nothing like sleeping in your own bed. I’m hoping that I can redo the bed tomorrow when I return home. I intend to change the entire bed to the beach theme The mattress cover will have to be laid flat until it rises which will give hubby back support. If he is able to return home tomorrow, then I will let him lie on the couch with some pillows until the bed is done. Hubby is due at the hospital by 9am and I intend to be on the road an hour prior because of work traffic. I am bringing a book and maybe my Kindle so I can do the jigsaws and also go online. And if I do bring the Kindle I must remember to bring the cord to recharge the battery.

Following surgery, hubby will have Physical Therapy. He should be up and about an hour or two following. Therapy is just down the hall from where I will be waiting. I will also be picking up some Vitamin E cream to help with the healing and to limit the scarring. Of course that depends on the surgeon and his staff.

Take care of yourself. Don’t overdo. If you decide on renting a vehicle. Check with Enterprise only because they will bring the car to you and will pick it up at the same place. However, there are others that are less expensive and may do the same thing.

I’m praying for both of you and sending my rainbows your way.
