I am a Victorian Soul, who lives in a small townhouse that was built in the mid 1970's, not a huge Mega Mansion!! I just recently lost my Hubby Joe, who was a Retired Letter Carrier. I worked night shift as an RN on a Hospital based Rehabilitation( Physical Medicine) Unit for 37 years before I had Knee Replacement Surgery and officially Retired in 2019 after 41 years working in Direct Patient Care ... I am so glad that we retired at 62 years of age and got to spend that time together before he passed....I still do love Retirement!!!!

Surgery Update and A Bit of Stained Glass!!


Welcome to Debbie-Dabble Blog!!
I am so happy you decided to stop by!!

I want to Thank all my friends and family, former Classmates and co-workers for your prayers and Well Wishes!!!

And I also want to Thank my Blogger friends from all over the United States and in other countries including Canada, England, France, Africa, Spain, Portugal, Australia, Mexico, Italy and Ecuador for your well wishes and prayers!!!
Stained glass circles in the Den windows.....

I only had to stay overnight .......
I was nauseated and vomited a few times during the night but we attributed it to the Tramadol ( Ultram) that I was taking for pain.......
Once my pain medication was switched, I was good to go.....
I did the stairs with no issues so I managed my stairs getting into my house but used another stair case further down my row of townhouses where there is only 7 steps rather that 13...
I will be downstairs sleeping for about a week or so and I have my first Physical Therapy appointment on Thursday, May 2nd.

So far, so good!!!

I do have some posts lined up so I hope you will stop by to visit again soon!!

Thanks to those who took the time out of their busy day to spend a little bit of time with me!!

    I am so glad to hear that you are doing well post op, Debbie! rest and don't try to rush recovery, as tempting as that idea may be. All in good time. I love stained glass so i enjoyed your photos of your pretty window glass hangings.

      Linda,
      Thanks so much for stopping by and for all your well wishes!! The first night home ( yesterday) was a bit rough because of the nerve block wearing off....But today, I am doing okay..I do have pain but that is because I can not take a lot of the pain medication usually ordered because it causes sever nausea and vomiting for me. I can only take Tylenol Extra strength and Tylenol with codeine which is not as strong as the oxycodone meds....But I know it will get better with each day...
      Hus,
      Deb

    All the best Jan

    How wonderful news dear friend ! I'm so glad you're in the path of healing due to the success of your intervention and upcoming therapy. Therapy is wonderful, my mom got so much better walking and handling things with her right hand because of her therapy !
    The stained glass are beautiful. I always loved stained glass things and had a window at our farm and now in this house I had one made for our kitchen skyline.
    Praying and many blessings sweet Debbie.

    So good to hear you are doing so well. Yes 7 steps is definitely better. I couldn't take Tramadol either, made me sick as a dog. Good you are over that. How is the stitches? When will they be taken out?
    Beautiful stain glass at your windows. Always pretty when the sun comes through it.
    Take care and check ya later,
    Betsy

    I have been thinking about you. I'm so glad things went well. I reacted just like that to meds after my hysterectomy. I hope therapy goes well and you are zipping around crafting in no time. Bloggers are amazing. They are such prayer warriors.
