Max L Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 TODAY HAS BEEN A MIXED BAG. VISITED DOCTOR FOR MY FIRST TIME SINCE OPERATION AND SHE FELT I AM DOING VERY WELL, WHICH IS THE GOOD NEWS. THE BAD NEWS IS THAT INEZ'S MOM PASSED AWAY THIS MORNING IN TORONTO CANADA, AND THE DOCTOR WAS NOT TOO HAPPY IF I WENT BACK TO TORONTO WITH INEZ FOR THE FUNERAL. INEZ WANTS ME TO STAY HERE AS SHE IS GOING WITH HER SISTER AND HER HUSBAND ON A QUICK TURNAROUND, SO AGAINST MY BETTER JUDGEMENT THAT IS WHAT WILL HAPPEN. I AM STILL COUGHING, BUT THE DOCTOR SAID THAT IT SHOULD STOP SOON AND IF NOT I AM TO SEE MY PULMONOLOGIST. AT THE LEAST THE PAIN HAS SUBSIDED AND I DO NOT NEED PERCOCET, THOUGH I DO HAVE A SCRIPT IF NECESSARY. ADVIL SEEMS TO BE WORKING WHEN I NEED IT. WELL, THAT IS THE START OF OUR NEW YEAR. HOPE EVERYONE HAS A GREAT START AND A GREAT YEAR. STAY POSITIVE AND NEVER, NEVER GIVE UP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbb Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Max, I am so sorry to hear of Inez's mom passing away. I am so glad you are feeling better! Keep doing what you are doing! Barb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LovesLife Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Max and Inez: I am new here; however, after lurking for some time I must say I think you are very brave and you have such a positive outlook on life. I am so very sorry that you are unable to accompany your wife back to Toronto; however, she knows you would be with her if possible. She would just worry about you (we women tend to be worriers). Please know that I am so very sorry for your loss. Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.C. Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Sorry your MIL passed away, sympathies to the family and Inez. Safer for you to stay home so soon after your surgery specially in the winter time, Toronto had very bad weather for New Year, but all will be fine for Inez trip. Take care Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shineladysue Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 My condolences to your family on the passing of your mil. I do think you are wise to stay behind and continue to heal. Sounds like you are doing well. Hope the cough will soon go, if not, seeing your pulmonologist may be the answer. I know , my husband's pulmonolgist stayed on top of his case and oftentimes was able to help with his breathing and treating cough etc. Keep us informed , Max.

recce101 Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Max: I know staying back was hard for you, but it was the right decision. It's good to hear you're off the percoset. Those pills made me feel really weird, and it was a relief when I was able to switch to good ole ibuprofen. Aloha, Ned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
