Guest guest Posted December 26, 2011 Report Share Posted December 26, 2011 Oh, YAY! Just got my operating time. They want me there at 5:30 a.m. (give or take a few minutes ) two hours to operating time. This was going to be the *only* time that'd get me out of the hospital by noon the next day. . . . (Lord willing and the crick don't rise.) Ya. I think I might be an optimist, lol! Getting ready for my last big comfort meal before normal recommences (I say that advisedly -- I'm well aware that normal is never to return. But " no big deal " is a wonderful compromise.): a BIG (machine minced) avocado/shrimp/cucumber/lettuce salad with tomato slushee. And then I'm going to wash the blender and put it away for a couple of days. Crock pot, too. Then we'll see. Recovery on this one seems about like the disease itself: very different for each one of us. Some have docs that keep you on soft for a month, and have problems even with that. Others are eating hamburgers the first day home. Have plenty of purees and even more soups, so am good to go, no matter which way the path leads. Just to have food actually HIT the tummy seems like a *huge* blessing. Kid advised me about an hour ago that he was on his way! He's about three and a half hours away. And I'm two and a half hours to UVA. So we'll be leaving about three in the morning. I. AM. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. EXCITED.................!!!!!
