Good to hear you are doing well.  Keep up the dilating, I know it can get old after awhile.

One mighty big Aussie Congratulations Colleen.

Fabulous that your recovery is as strong as it is. Got to be your attitude. After all, attitude determines your altitude.

I'm absolutely amazed you were on the table for only 2 and half hours with an epidural. That's completely awesome. I'll have to psych myself into that one, but it sounds like the way to go.

Keep up the mighty job you are doing. You're an inspiration to us all.

Mighty big Huggs

Well, here I am nearly 2 weeks post-op, and things keep getting better. It's really great to be home, been home since Saturday. It was a bit more difficult getting set up than I'd thought it would be, but I'm getting there. Been out for 2 long walks (1hr +) so far this week. Love having my boyfriend to cuddle with, and he does the housework for me.

Sure will be nice when I can sleep on my side again, when the pain is a memory, and getting out of bed doesn't involve gymnastics! 

 

Hey, hon, whenever you post a single emoticon like that, I read half your tagliatelle before realizing I'm reading tagline, not reply, lol! 

Colleen,
It is great to know you are home. Must be nice to has a guy there to help and cuddle with.
Keep getting stronger.
Hugs,

Hi Colleen 

Sorry I'm late to the party but my internet was down awhile

Just want to say congrats and glad thing are going well 

Hugs

Sorry...
I was just so tickeled pink for you that all I had was a big goofy grin.

Today was a good day, starting with last night being a good night. I seem to have turned a corner of sorts. Less bleeding, less discharge. My routine is becoming easier. Less pain. I still have to walk slow, but my pace is picking up. The swelling is also way down, and pretty much no bruising left. Less gymnastics getting out of bed. I can almost begin to imagine walking with a spring in my step. Feeling good!  And this is at the END of the day! 

Thanks, Hun. Yes, I do have the world's best bf!  Kind, gentle, and loves me to bits.  I love him to bits, too. 

I am so delighted for you sis.
It's been a privilege to see you come so far so quickly.
Hugs

Had an amazingly naughty dream this morning...

Dreamt I was masturbating, and I was oh... so... close to orgasm...

I think it wasn't entirely a dream, when I got up, there was something running down my leg... Hee-hee!

Congrats on the Surgery Colleen!

Hi Colleen;

I am so envious. And I have been meaning to say what a beautiful name. I presume you are of Irish descent. Congratulations on the SRS and I hope recovery goes well. Talking of Ireland have you been to the Ring of Kerry.  I reckon this would be a great place for the bf to take you for some great fresh air, seafod and R&R on the road to recovery!!
Love & Hugs

Congratulations!!! hope you are doing well!!! 

Wow, hard to believe it's over a month already!  Today I added dilator #3 to my routine, but now dilate 3 times/day instead of 4, so that makes it a bit easier. Had some trepidations about moving up to #3, but it proved to be no sweat. Saw my doctor yesterday, and she said mine was one of the better looking post-op vaginas she's seen. Still a fair bit of swelling, but getting better all the time. I go walking outside every day for 45 minutes to an hour, and I'm getting around by myself, too. I have an appointment with my hairdresser this afternoon. Life is good!
