Well, We Just Drove to Salt Lake City in Utah and I had the BIGGEST Surgery Thus Far! ... A BIG SURGERY. So, yeah, I came down off the Mountain and traveled the distance. I had to go deep to get through this one and it's not over yet
I have missed being around. ... I've been a long way from home, Literally speaking and metaphorically speaking. Thanks again to all the support from the communtiy here at Enchanted Folk. I look foward to being around more and more each week ;} I am also going to start by updating a two-year old profile of myself I have seen, heard, and read a ton of great stuff since then, so I have to revise. So, I don't even know how to begin...
I'll use some excerpts from some other posts I've made to save my body the agony of double post typing.
We did make a two week trip stay to Utah to go to one of the best doctors in the very special field of my needs... I needed a fully reconstructed abdominal wall. Until a few days ago, not a single muscle was attached in my stomach, from my chest to below my waist line, right down the middle.
Months ago I had been cut open in a previous surgery ( you may have read it in an old post...lemme know if you wanna know the first chapters of what crazy stuff went down) and the muscles never reconnected at all, going all the way up and down the middle of my little tummy-tum-tumm. So my stomach was bulging out with nothing to hold the insides "in". Every step was pain..... BUT,
This Doctor is a Genius!
I felt Like Humpty Dumpty before the surgery, now I feel like I may move a little again,..
It all depends now on if my Back is ok???
And now MY muscles have been all Individually sewn back together and I've had a new Technology added to my abdominal wall lining too. I'll explain more later / sooner. Gotta Go for Now.
I cant be sitting up for too long at a time, so I must add more later....I have to retire for a few... Sitting at the Keyboard is the Most Extensive I can get with my physical therapy at this point.
