Hi Plantgirl, a few days have passed and I am hoping you are more comfortable now and using fewer pain meds. My surgeries were in August and Sept of this year so my memories of post op eating is very clear to me. I did a lot of reading too on my downtime since chatting on the phone was out of the question!..my mouthful of socks probably sounded about the same as yours. if you like Interior Decorating the Nate Berkus tv program might be nice for you to spend some time with. Just a thought! He has a living plant wall as part of his set, truly beautiful.

keep posting Plantgirl we would like to follow your recovery with you!

Light and blessings,

Meggie
