Got home from hospital last night. THey did have to take all lymphnodes from the right side and also took the both breasts.
am on lotabs every 4 hours . Today the nurse came took vitals and and changed the dressings and emptied the drains of which I have 3 .
@ on one side one on the other and this is a hassle when ya have to go to the bathroom but I got it all figured out now I think lol
Dont know when the drains come out. but I will have home nurses till I dont need them any more
I am feelin g ok and nurse was real pleased that I was up and moving around good.
ANd while the nurse was hear got a call from son He had emercqancy Appendix operation today and wnated to talk to me before he went in and when he got out.
And Morphine didnt do him any good
think thye ended up getting Demerol. . And while I was in the hospital Son in law thought he broke 2 toes and he did a bang up job on them black and blue to his angkel
Well this is my days how was yours
? ANd I want to thank every one for prayes and enegy and candles lit for me I had a feeling of every one beeing with me in the operating room and after.
hugs and blessings all

It sounds like your family has been through a lot. They say everything comes in 3's. I've had many surgeries and none of them were easy. I can relate to some of what you're going through. Thank God for pain killers. I'm not familiar with your situation but I'd like to offer some prayers and positive thoughts for your family. Sends quick healing vibes your way. Have a blessed day!

I am glad you are home and healing. The drainage tubes are a pain but necessary. Lotab is a good medicine. I was on it for a while. I am sorry that your son had an emegency appendectomy. I hope that he wasn't in too much pain after. Well, when it rains it pours doesn't it? I hope your son in law is feeling better. Broken toes are painfull. We were all there for you and wishing you well. Keep us updated.
Hugs :-)

You are back...YES!!!!! Wow...what good news that is. I haven't been on Mylot much the last few days...busy with other things and enjoying our beautiful Fall weather. Thought I would do a quick check in before going to bed...and here you are!
Greetings, welcome back...and so good to know that you are up and about already. We missed your presence...and it is a relief to know how you are doing. I am sure all your other friends will be shouting...'Hooray, Hooray!! just as I am.
It is not surprising to me that you can feel all the love, light and healing energies coming your way...you are a sensitive, knowing person Lakota..and have come through this situation with much dignity and grace. In my view you are an inspiration to anyone who knows and reads about how amazingly well you handled the circumstances. You deserve all good things...and I sincerely hope you have them. As I have said before I truly do wish for you everything you wish for yourself. We will keep in touch..as we always do.
Love, hugs and many light filled blessings dear friend.

My dear, dear friend, it's so good to hear from you and know you are doing so good. You're amazing. It seems you even triggered off those other accidents with the appendix and the toes...that's some awesome power you have there lady.
The good wishes will continue I'm sure just as long as you need them, you have some good and true friends here mate.
Continue to get well and strong again. Love you big time. xx

Oh honey, I'm so glad you're home and up and around a bit. I was so worried how you were doing. Bless your heart for taking the time and effort to update us. I think there was a lot of us there with you holding your hand the whole time.
They say that events happen in 3's. So you, your son and your son-in-law... that's the 3 so everything will be smooth sailing from here on!!
Wishing you a very fast recovery Lakota... ((((BIG HUGS))))

Hello Lakota.^_^ I'm very, very glad that you're ok and up and going.lol
I'm so surprised when I saw your discussion. I was expecting that you'll be gone a longer time. But you showed us differently. ^_^
But, it's nice to hear back again from you.

Hugs, blessings and thoughts to you too Lakota. Be sure to take it easy though. The healing process should not be rushed. We'll be here, worry not.
Please relax, get some rest and have a nice week.
