Normal
Back to our condo from the hospital. They called yesterday and let me know that my 5:00 am appointment had been changed and we didn't have to show up until the much more reasonable time of 7:50 am. Check in was quick and efficient and everything went relatively smoothly as they prepared me for surgery. Once the anesthesia took effect, I don't remember a thing until I woke up in the recovery room. Everyone Rita or I encountered could not have been nicer and all exuded competence and compassion. I am glad that I didn't wait until we got back north to have the procedure and am hopeful that recovery goes as well as everything has so far. No heavy lifting for the next four weeks, but I can begin driving again in a week as long as everything continues to go well. See the surgeon in a week for a follow-up. Glad to hear Lee and LuAnn made it home safely and that they had no problems getting back into Canada. While the weather this year hasn't been as good as we have come to expect, it certainly was preferable to staying back home these past three months, so we are definitely planning to return in 2023.Booked that Greenland cruise in the Fall of 2023 and looking at a NE/Canada cruise out of Boston this Fall because we have some cruise credits that have to be redeemed or lost.Check back later but my bed is beckoning to me right now. Doubt I will be getting up as early as 6 am tomorrow or for the rest of our stay,
