        Thank you all! I am home from the hospital. The surgeon said the surgery went wonderfully. He had a bunch of people in there observing and learning from him because I am an unusual case.

        So now I am on a clear liquids only diet for a week, then full liquid, then soft foods for a while and slowly back to a normal diet over 12 weeks.

        It takes a long time to heal and all the swelling to go down.

        Home resting and on morphine for pain, so a little loopy. 😛

        Thanks again!! We are very relieved with how everything went and turned out.

        Happy Creating

                              Thanks all again so much! I had several rough days with severe radiating left shoulder pain that is associated with abdominal surgeries, it felt like I was hit in the shoulder with a sledgehammer. I had to sleep in my recliner because it was the only way I could get even remotely comfortable.

                              The pain finally dissipated and I am drawing for the first time again today, along with my first milkshake after a week of clear liquids only. So yeah for small victories! I have my music on and I'm feeling pretty good! 😃

                                    Wow, i'm glad you're feeling better and hope you can get back to your normal soon. I know soon i'll be in a similar situation in terms of having a kinda big surgery, but seeing your positive energy about it is really encouraging.
