Title: My Midsummer Night's Dream
Post by: FairyGirl on June 20, 2010, 03:56:50 PM
Just wanted to say thanks so much to everyone for your well wishes on this fairy's most exciting Midsummer's Eve ever! (https://www.susans.org/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cosgan.de%2Fimages%2Fsmilie%2Fliebe%2Ff050.gif&hash=f06e4e279974c327470aac7dcff14f3ffbbe83cb)

Unfortunately the hospital has no internet connection, and by the doctor's orders I'll be staying an additional 4 days in a hotel near her office where I will still have no internet, so I'm looking at 9 days without the third lobe of my brain lol (https://www.susans.org/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cosgan.de%2Fimages%2Fsmilie%2Fkonfus%2Fg040.gif&hash=08f9cf3c4ce21f616536267322fc1cd20f37e30d) Jen has graciously agreed to post an update here for me, once I'm awake enough to call her ;)

I just want to add I'm very grateful to all the people here who have shared their experiences and knowledge concerning all the many aspects of this surgery and beyond. Susan's has been an invaluable resource in these matters and we are fortunate to have this place to share our stories.

See y'all next week!  ;)

Best wishes for the surgery!  During the surgery, just kind of lay there, don't try to help Dr McGinn, she knows what she's doing  ;D

A fast recovery to you!

I just received a text from Chloe.  She is doing well but resting.  I don't think she feels up to talking just yet and I doubt that she'll be posting anything here for a few days at least.  Well, I know she won't because she doesn't have internet access until she gets out of the hospital.

Anyway, I'm sure she will appreciate any thoughts and well-wishes y'all may send her way :).

wow thank you everyone for all your sweet words, it really helps to have all this good energy coming my way! Jen honey thank you so much for posting for me and I loved your little poem (https://www.susans.org/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cosgan.de%2Fimages%2Fsmilie%2Fliebe%2Ff035.gif&hash=6ebc9d6c7991653f65d91782aa9e0195502b9ef7)

So, I had a little internal bleeding complication after surgery and ended up needing about 6 units of blood, but it was never life threatening just a bit of a slow leak. lol Anyways, I had to spend an extra day in hospital and have simply been too sore to sit at my computer for the last 2 weeks! I'm healing well now and every day is getting better. I can't even describe in words how wonderful it is to finally be whole.

And let me just say that Dr. McGinn is my hero! She brought me through the complications and was right there for me when I needed her, even at 3 o'clock in the morning when I needed a few extra stitches to stop the bleeding. Her expertise and professionalism as well as her compassion and commitment to her patients continues to amaze me. She is one remarkable woman.

Thank you all again for all your good thoughts, it has really helped a lot and I am humbly grateful. (https://www.susans.org/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cosgan.de%2Fimages%2Fsmilie%2Fliebe%2Ff050.gif&hash=f06e4e279974c327470aac7dcff14f3ffbbe83cb) 

*big hugs*

Chloe, I was begining to wonder if we where going to hear from you again. So I am really glad your back after reading about your ordeal.

Sounds like McGinn made an excellent save.

How are your results so far?

Post by: rejennyrated on July 05, 2010, 02:33:32 AM
Glad you are ok and on the mend. I guess my Tuscan holiday was slightly less eventful than your hospital stay then.

Congratulations on making it safely to the end of the journey.

thank you all again, I really appreciate all the good thoughts!  :)

Still a little early to tell about results as I'm still a bit swollen and healing. But at the risk of TMI I can tell you that Ms. Clitoris is alive and touchy as hell! geez that area wasn't even that sensitive before surgery lol

Dr. McGinn is wonderful and I'm totally in awe of her. She saw me in her office every day for about 5 days straight, even last Sunday on the holiday, to make sure the healing was going okay and there was no further bleeding complications.

haha Cindy I already have a nice Hello Kitty bikini I'm saving for Curl Curl Beach this Christmas ;)
