So happy to hear the good news! All these 'nicks' bother me, but it just shows how good Rose's constitution is to overcome them.

No time to be a hero---- let the painkillers do their thing. I think if I had to be on my back for that long, I'd want to be comfortable!

Please ask her family to give her a gentle {{{{{hug}}}}} from us.

I agree with you about the strength of Rose's constitution. She's built to last, isnt she?

My father had a similar constitution and you are reminding me of a comment one of our favorite doctors made following one of his surgeries, "Awww, you couldnt kill him with a claw hammer!" LOL

I agree that the number of nicks seems to be cause for concern, but as I understand it that was part of the known risk and part of the reason for why this particular surgery was so delicate. I expressed some thoughts on this point in a post to Frog Mom just a little while ago. (Sorry I dont have the post number.)

I am grateful too, that she isnt trying to play the hero and tough out that pain. That would be the wrong thing to do, imho.

She stated today that she is feeling our prayers as a blanket, so I'm sure she has gotten your hug!
