Still Hanging In There

The surgery went well and everything seems to be going the way it should. Becca is resting between Physical Therapy sessions, and taking lots of pills. She feels kinda sick at the moment, but it’s been a stressful few days, and there is lots of medicine doing all kinds of things to her.

She is moving around pretty well now in the crutches. It’s a lot better this year than last year because she isn’t suffering through those spinal headaches. Really it’s amazing how much she can move around after having such a major surgery.

We are kinda wiped out from a cold that we picked up right before surgery. Sleep would be nice. I should get some of that.

Thank you all for your prayers and concern, things have really come together for us here. Over the past couple of months we have gone through a lot of emotional ups and downs, wondering if this surgery was going to happen. Now it’s happened and we are just now starting to look forward to what we’re going to do after Becca has recovered. We leave here on Saturday.

We had a little sleep last night. In our second PT appointment right

now. Hopefully we can have some time to catch our breath this evening.

Surgery at 1:30 Today

We are here in Vail again. Excited to be getting this done. We got a great couple days with family over thanksgiving, but now it’s time to get Becca walking again.

Surgery Postponed

Yesterday, we were in the pre-op room ready for surgery, Becca was hooked up the an IV and Oxygen for hours, and then they told us they ran out of time to get her in for surgery. The surgeon had to catch a flight and things were going long. Monday is the next available time slot. So we will be back in Vail for surgery again on Monday. We will post time and details after we hear from them.
