Surgery - Done and dusted

Thank you all for all the texts, emails, phone calls, and prayers from near and far. I went into hospital on Friday morning and by mid-day was awake enough to have a conversation, although I took the opportunity to sleep! I was released Saturday late afternoon which was a slight delay as I should have be released early in the morning. I had a bit more drainage from the wound so had to get that under control before leaving. I'm now laying low and getting into the Christmas spirit. It's been a long journey and I have probably been more tired, run down and emotional than I would like to admit (especially given the situation at work). But I am now on a months holiday break so looking forward to some quality time with the family! The recovery from this surgery should be a lot quicker than the last two as it was just putting the final prosthetic in on one side. So I hope to get some beach time in sometime in the coming 3 weeks or so. I will think about what this blog may look like in 2014 if I keep going with it. I have a couple more things I want to write about between now and early January so watch this space. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and yours! From Laurice and Team Laurice
