staples came out easily. first time around there were like 16, but when i got restapled they put in like 30! took forever for them to get them all out.

but i can shower normally now, i love it! haha never realized how much i'd miss it.

had my first full day out of the house today, the beach, dinner, movies, coffee, pool.... (new guy in my life so ya know...) was great.

heading to florida on wednesday, my dad's mom died last week... but gonna make the most of it and see my cousins i haven't seen in almost 20 years, and will hopefully have a bit of fun while i'm out there.

Hey Drea,

I was a bit worried when you weren't on Facebook for over a week- for you to be off there means things were REALLY bad! But I'm glad to hear you're doing ok now and are busting (excuse the pun, lol) to get back into life. I hope you keep healing well. I'm so relieved for your that your RSD didn't spread.

xx
