My friend the Empress had 'scope surgery about 3 months ago. She thought since the 'outside' scar was so little that it'd be an easy-peasy recovery. The surgeon and doc had to remind her that it was a long internal scar that was healing. Better in a lot of ways, but still a fair bit of healing to get done.
Well, we'd be happy to send you some rain your way. We've had a fair bit lately. So, lots to spare!
The thing is with Vivienne's op is that there is quite a large piece of surgical mesh (or something similar) that's been sewn in place. So, lots of internal healing going on, and I'm sure the tugging and pulling sensations she's been getting are due to that. She's a brave one!

Thank you for the good wishes Set!

Sounds pretty yucky to me. I never liked it here when we got our searing temps in the summer (mostly in August). I look back now and wonder how I got through the hot dog days!

Yes, I agree. I suspect that hospital staff use these little blankets in case the patients make a mess of some kind.
Vivienne now has her date for the day surgery on her right knee. It's Oct 29. This is to cut the tear in the miniscus and to remove a floating bone chip. So, I assume she will be put under again for about 20 minutes.
I'll have to make sure she's put on something else than those stupid sheets in recovery. Otherwise, we'll start all over again with the rash. As it is, I'm still using cream once a day to fix it up. We saw the skin doc yesterday, and it's all coming along, but the applications have to be kept up at least another couple of weeks.
Hey, thanks all for dropping by, giving best wishes, and enquiring about this. Nice to know I'm not alone.
:wink: .
