    Welcome to the Club
    That wasn't so bad was it? Yea. Let's focus on the recovery. Only those of us who have had the sutgery have the right to make light of it.

    Best wishes,

    Welcome back!!!
    Hi LFocus,

    Soon this will be a distant memory with only a few battle scars to remind you. You'll probably still hit a few bumps over the next several weeks, but its officially okay now to resume thinking about and living a "normal" life.
