Had my "clean up" surgery on the 10th. Did great. No longer have a big hole in my belly. And I will surly miss doing the 2X a day dressing changes I have been doing for a year. NOT! I also no longer have a belly button. Now where am I going to put that belly button ring Santa brought.
The surgery went great the wound is huge, Hip to hip, but healing great. Should get the stiches (staples) out on the 8th. What a difference a doctor makes.
Had a wonderful holiday spent with my daughter, son in law, granddaughter, brother and son. I haven't felt this good in a year.
Hope everyone here and all your families have a blessed, healthy and happy New Year. Beth

    How true!!! So glad for you that it went well. Seems you have been so patient and now to have a good doctor must be a comforting feeling as well as feeling physically better now.

    Happy New Year!
