  • Back -- Finally!

    As most of you know, I had some pretty major abdominal surgery during the second week of February. All went really quite well. Unfortunately, the day after I returned from the hospital my Mom had her first chemotherapy treatment, and had a very, very bad reaction to it. We almost lost her!

    I immediately flew down to NC and, although she pulled through, and is doing quite well, now, I decided to just stay down there during my own recuperation (my poor Dad!). Her hard drive had died, and it wasn't the time to worry about getting it repaired, so I had no computer access while there. In my haste, I hadn't even bothered to take along my own laptop.

    I got home this afternoon, and plan to go back to work, tomorrow. I'm really glad to be home, and glad to be feeling like my old self, again. It's great to be back on the board, again, as well. I've really missed my ADBB family!

                During the recuperation period, and also since I was eating every meal with Dad, I just did a maintenance plan. I'll even admit to having a bit of potato, but I avoided all sugar. I had lost a little tiny bit of weight during my surgery, but gained that right back, so I'm pretty much right where I was before the procedure.

                I'm getting right back on track, though. I WILL lose these last few pounds!

                  I am new to the group, but I am sorry to hear about first it sounds like you had trouble yourself and then on top of that your mom. I hope all is well now.

                    Thanks, Chrisie. Yes, life's been a bit of a challenge, recently, but it's certainly looking better these days. Welcome to ADBB, by the way!!
