Back Home....
« on: October 01, 2011, 12:42:46 pm »
Before surgery,  the Dr. reminded me that he would be working with my inner ear which is also the "Seat of Balance" for the human body and I could have some dizziness and balance problems. Came out of recovery, got dressed and almost fell on my face starting for the door. The nurse asked if I was all right and I said "NO"...
So they kept me overnite for "Post surgery observation".
Got  home about a half hour ago and outside of a bit of a headache and a little pain in the left Mandibular joint (left jaw) everything seems OK.
Three weeks for the bone to fill in around the hole he drilled thru my skull and the incision to heal then I go back for the Big Turn On!
Hope to have it "Activated" by Oct. 20th!

Thanks to ALL my forum friends for the prayers and good wishes.

HUGZZZZZZZ to you ALL"

I'm glad the surgery is behind you and you're back home. I've had you in my thoughts and prayers.

Take it easy for a few days.

GB, happy you are home and well, give yourself sufficient time to heal, the saw will be there to use in due time. Take this opportunity to catch up on reading a few novels or good Scrollsaw magazines.

Junk is something you've kept for years and throw away three weeks before you need it.

GB
I'm going to cut and paste your report and send it to Cliff. I saw him today and he said he hadn't heard from you. So at least he'll know how you did.

I did send you his address again, did you get it OK?
