I made it through surgery. [View all]

The good news is that I didn't have a hernia. However I had an abscess on my left butt cheek. I'm recovering now and won't be able to reply, but I wanted to thank everyone for their well wishes.

I don't know how long they will keep me in the hospital, but I hope to return to my regular posting routine on Saturday. It will be nice to be able to sit upright rather than lying on my hips.

Once again, thank you for the prayers and DU vibes--they really work. I'm keeping up with reading the threads and hope to return ASAP.
