Hi ,

Glad your feeling better now, Bronchitis knocked you for a loop did

it?

Thanks for the kind words. It is so nice to finally feel better, more

like myself. I have decided not to stress over the antibiotics

anymore, now that I am off of the worst of them. Appetite is great,

can tell by my tightening waistband. So nice not to have to juggle

them any more.

Now you be careful picking that baby up! Picking up a baby, what a

hard thing not to be able to do. We were in Texas a few weeks ago for

grandaughters first birthday. So hard not to just swoop her up. Just

had them place her in my lap when I was sitting in a pretty secure

spot. She's a wiggle worm and was worried she would do a whoops and I

woudln't be able to grab her quick. I am not worried about having the

bolts removed. I do remember reading in a long ago post, someone

having to have them removed. Said it was a very easy surgery, up and

out in the same day. Its what I am going to anticipate.

Someone told me about the bolts " you got screwed " (looking at Kathy),

now I can say, hey the docs are gonna 'unscrew me'!

Hugs,

with Bonchitis, and had the Grandbaby for nearly two weeks so I'm

sooo behind on posts. I'd say overall your 6 mos check was very

positive, I'm sorry that it may look like antibiotics will have to go

on( has you appetite improved on them?), and that your bolts are

giving you fits. I had a moment with mine, this year, but it settled

out, and hopefully it was only because I picked up my now almost 30

pound grandbaby, a new no no for me, and I just tweeked them. You

really have been through so much and I know the thought of having

them out sucks. I feel glad to hear your report that even with all

your complications you are happy with your new body and glad you had

surgery. I'm glad you are through the worst of it now and know the

next 12 months and more you'll see more improvement and stamina, at

least thats what I have found. You are of such value here, your

friendship and your help to those coming behind you, you rock!
