Slow but sure....

Hi All,

Not much on being a take it easy kind of girl, so this Patient thing is a whole new venue for me. Finding that if I wash my hair every other day I feel better. In and out of bed all day, cat napping, watching tv, reading, phone calls now and then, playing literati with Al, pressing flowers, writing and eating , that about sums it up. Perhaps I'll finish off some unfinished paintings?

The occasional bout of nausea and pain to be expected I quess. Trying to keep away from the painkillers they're binding me up, thank goodness for stool softeners and hemoroidal cream. My system did not like this tampering at all.

Anyways I hope some of the Stolls and friends managed to catch your set in Hamilton on Monday. I had a nice chat with Terry ( the oldest nephew) on Sunday. His parents Elt and Jean will be celebrating they're 60th anniversary next week.

Janine I truly hope you enjoy trip abroad, it will do you so much good, just to see a different part of the world and new faces!

Meantime I'm focusing it on taking it easy wearing these funny lycra socks to stop my feet and legs from swelling. Be glad to be able to get back to normal. My followup appointment with my onconlygist is Aug. 8th for results of my surgery.

We are eating healthy. I still haven't weighed myself, post surgery water retention is ever present. Give it a month at least, before I hit the scales again.

Love you all
Birgie
