Gee, I had beg for an abdominal binder after my surgery. Makes it so much easier to turn in bed and climb stairs.
Oh, okay, so it is a good thing. Then I will take it! I definitely need help turning in bed without surgery! Thanks, PF for setting me straight on that one!
It absolutely made the difference between being hauled out of bed by Shrek on his time or getting in and out on mine. You just have an arrogant surgeon to put it in his interest instead of yours about your surgery.
The binder also helped when coughing and/or laughing.
I have to wait to watch Blacklist - TB gave up on it after the second episode because it was too gross....and now it is worse? I can take it!
I saw the surgeon and the gallbladder is definitely coming out. I have to phone in the morning for my surgery date. In the meantime I have to really watch my diet. I ate a bit of wrong stuff and the pain got worse. He said that it is bad enough, he doesn't want the stones (yes there are stones, not just sludge as the ER doc told me) moving out.
The surgeon is nice enough, but kind of ticked me off because he focused on the fact I am overweight and he wants me to be careful after not to rip his stitches out. I said I don't move fast at the best of times and he told me he could prescribe a surgical girdle for afterwords. No thanks, I know how to be careful and I am not THAT overweight in my belly area.

I will be Cat, thanks. It is a very easy surgery and I get to go home the same day. Most people I have talked to have been pain free after the surgery heals.Oh dear! I'll be thinking of you, Laurie. I hope you'll be out of this pain very soon!
With love,
~Cat
I should be in bed sleeping, but I'm wide awake
Everything will be ok in the end. If it's not ok, it's not the end.
I finally found out what the incident was on the autoroute, the one that had them close part of the highway.
A chunk of concrete fell off an overpass. It hit one car, and the debris caused a number of flat tires. Luckily, no one was injured. That's scary.
Oh, it is closed. They are closing the highway again tonight to inspect it. They think it just some of the cosmetic concrete. We'll know more, when the engineers give their report. They are being careful ever since an overpass collapsed and killed five people in 2006 in Laval, just north of Montreal.Oh no!! That is awful! I'm so glad no one was hurt! That overpass needs to be closed down and inspected and repaired quickly!

My SIL had the surgery a few years back. Had it early in the week; by Friday night the four of us went out to a restaurant to eat because she was getting cabin fever! She (along with most people I know who have had their's out) has to watch her fat intake. French Fries will send her running to the bathroom! At least she's pain free.I will be Cat, thanks. It is a very easy surgery and I get to go home the same day. Most people I have talked to have been pain free after the surgery heals.
Congratulations Cat. She now knows what many of us here at DC have probably noticed over the months you've been posting. Your English is getting better every day. Good work!I'm awake too. I went back to school, and found out my remedial English professor said I didn't need her class any more! She said I'd made much improvement but she also said if I had any questions or needed help, her door was open and she would give me all the help I needed!...

I am continuing to work on finding a place for a weekend long family re union for my family this summer. It has had it's challenges. Trying to find a place, in July, to sleep 40 people that is affordable. The whole thing is giving me a headache.
But it was all of you who have helped me so very much here! I could see how you all spoke, as in typing, many of you corrected me in the private messages, and seeing the corrections and reading this, I was able to do better and to learn. I now "hear" your way of speaking in my head. Oh, that didn't sound right.
I "hear" the right way to speak by reading better and understanding how this language is spoken. I don't know if I'm making sense.
Before I bury myself into further confusion for you all, thank you for helping me so much. I appreciate all of you so very, very much.
You all are a big part of making this possible, and I thank you.
Does anyone have any ideas of how to get rid of a Romanian accent? I don't type with a Romanian accent, and I'm sure all of you are glad for that!
With love,
~Cat
