A New Day

This post will be short and sweet, as I'm sure you understand! :)

First, I just want to thank all of you for your amazing support and encouragement. I can not fully express how much it has meant to us! We began receiving emails Sunday night before surgery, and they are still arriving! Michael has shared each and every note, message, email, text and phone call with me. It is an overwhelming feeling to be so loved by so many! Thank you - you guys keep us going! 
     
I definitely don't want to leave out the food. Oh my goodness. All of it has been so delicious!! I have an appetite, although I get full very quickly, but I make sure to try everything. You guys are amazing! Thanks for the visits. Healing can be monotonous and boring, so I am grateful for the conversations! 
    
 I'm doing well to be just a few days post-op! I'm finally able to get up and get around, although I tire rather quickly...and by quickly I mean after just a few steps! I'm swollen and bruised, sore and tired, BUT I'm oh so good! God is oh.so.good! Per my oncologist, the surgery couldn't have gone better. I loss very little blood ( a common complication in this type of surgery). My blood sugars have been good and stable. I'm healing and recovering with God, family, and friends right by my side. 

YOU GUYS REALLY ARE AMAZING! I am blessed indeed!
