132 staples later...
« on: November 25, 2012, 07:57:40 pm »
Well...
It seems like I have been gone forever!!!  :sad1:

First time I have been able to pick up my tablet.
During the first week of November I had major survey.
This was suppose to take 2-3hours.
I was in surgery over 5 hours!

In surgery1987 I had surgery to have my gallbladder  & appendix  out.
Complications left me with a scar from breast line to below navel.

This inciscion started tearing..
I had several inciscional hernias & a huge one below my navel!

So after 5 hrs+ in surgery -&-132 staples later....

I'M  BACK!!!!!!![/color]

Thank you so much to both of you!!!  :angel11:

And let me tell you... people who still staple their lights up for Christmas decorations...
They might have a problem finding those staples. 

These staples are huge!!!

Slowly recovering here... lots of tears... board.. depression etc. 
Finally able to get back on here.. and that is awesome!!

Okay well I am finally getting a bit tired...

Till tomorrow.

Happy Earnings!!  :thumbsup:

I was wondering why the store was out of the staples to hang the christmas lights!  LOL LOL 
All kidding aside I am glad you are on the mend.  Never easy recovering from surgery but once you have started it seems to get better and better, faster and faster!  So now you are back to Fusion Cash -- that is a huge step in the right direction!  I wish you leaps and bounds of improvement every day!  Hopefully by Christmas you will be "polka" ready!! Or at least able to poke along comfortably!   ::) :)

132 staples?  That's a large incision.  I imagine having major surgery this time of year was especially aggravating.

I'm so confused by this post.  lol

I had surgery at the begining of the month.

The incision was so large across my abdomin... they had to use 132 Staples to hold it together to heal.

I look like I have an upside down T

I have several imbilical hernias, and several incisional hernias. 

They had to reconstruct my entire adbomin.

So that is the story....  :bunny:

Happy Earnings!  :thumbsup:
