Yesterday, I took the long walk from our bedroom to our office and sat down at the computer. It's been a month since I have even looked at my computer. During that month, I had my second total knee replacement. When I opened my mailbox, I was deluged with messages of encouragement and love that honestly brought on the tears. To say that I've been overwhelmed by the love so freely expressed to me is an understatement. I will never be able to properly express my gratitude, but perhaps the sentiment from timeless Tweety Bird will serve as an attempt. Thank you, friends, family, and neighbors, for your thoughts and your prayers. It has been a rough ride, but I do believe that it was possible, in large part, because of the love and support that follows me.Things are looking up. Tomorrow I begin the post-reconstruction phase, out-patient rehabilitation. I'll think of your sweet emails, visits, comfort food, phone calls, flowers, and cards, and texts, and perhaps blow some innocent Tweety-bubbles, as I attempt to refrain from, um, raising my voice in objection to my physical therapists and their implements of torture. Bless my PT's. They are wonderful experts who kindly administer tough love and have only my best interests at heart.
So, again, Thank You. You are loved!
