hey everyone, i've just got back from surgery. i wanted to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers. the surgery went well and dr. shenaq thinks that i will get around 80% use of my arm back. it was a different experience being in texas, especially during superbowl week-end. didn't think that i would ever get home. it's also hard to get used to typing one handed because my bp arm is in a brace. just wanted to say hello, will write more later. eletha

Eletha,

Good to hear from you and glad you are home and that the surgery was a success.

You have some hard work and lots of therapy ahead of you, but for now, rest up and heal.

BPI hug,
Nancy

Eletha:

Glad all went well. Make sure that you get a lot of rest. Do you have the big pillow sling on? If so, welcome to the pillow world...

I bet it was crazy in Texas during the SuperBowl. Take care.

Eletha
