Hi there- Ugh- tough day huh? . I'm so sorry. Well it is very good news that it is isolated and the doc thinks surgery will resolve this. I know it all sound so grisley and horrific when they describe it to you in detail. I was just like-- "don't tell me! just fix me!"... Its a tough surgery but you will be OK. Don't be scared. They will give you plenty of pain meds and it will just be a little awkward and uncomfortable at times.. and you'll be tired but its not like you are going to be in agonizing pain. Its a total shock to the system but the human body is AMAZING at healing itself and adapting to change. It just happens naturally.


When do they plan on doing the surgery?
I'll be thinking of you and praying for a full and speedy recovery from this little setback.

Hang in there!
