OK…..going to try this for a second time !!!!!!!! I am back again and hopefully this time to stay. I missed all my book blogging friends and apologize that there has been no update. Will give a quick summary of why I haven’t been here.
Unfortunately I had a major setback. After being discharged to home after the surgery I had a bad reaction to one of my pain meds, which played havoc on my blood pressure. Because of this, on 2 occasions, while walking with my walker I experienced signs of low blood pressure (becoming faint) and fell. I was rushed to our local hospital both times and then on the 2nd ER visit to make sure no damage was done to the hardware in my back, I was transported to the out of state hospital where the surgery was done. Once there and readmitted, I had some major complications that at times were critical. But as of Friday night I turned the corner and was able to be discharged to home yesterday. I am weak and still have a lot of post op pain but feel that now I am on the right road to recovery…..it will take time but I am willing to take baby steps. It feels good to be home.
I have a lot of catching up to do !!!!!!! I am very behind in my reading and reviews, never even opened a book while in hospital because I was too sick. I also need to catch up with all my favorite blogs and resubscribe to newsletters. HAVE A FAVOR TO ASK…..if you have any news that I might have missed over the past 3 weeks and would like to share, I would love to hear about it. It will take time but eventually I will be back to my old self and schedule. It can only get better from here !!!! I am glad to be back and plan on staying this time !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
