Dear Tina and LastNerve I just was jumping in on the excitement bandwagon, and most assuredly, I am sidestepping for Tina's use of the next countdown number! Wow, can you feel the excitement in the air??

This is going to be good,
ASAP,

Thanks sweet friends, I can use all the positive energy and prayers that you can spare. It has been a real bear of a week, severe pain. I went to the ER on Saturday night to get a shot to break the pain, but it lasted only a day and I am back in hell. So let's pray that this thing works! I guess it it is good to have a reminder of how bad it can get, so that I can savor the good when it comes.
Hugs to you all, thank you for the sweet, kind, caring support. I can feel it strongly!

as some may know Lastnerve had her fianl implant of PNS for her Atypical
this past Wednesday.
She has been in a whole bunch of pain since. I know she could really use some positive thoughts and prayers . So if Everyone / anyone would be so kind as to keep Lastnerve in their thoughts I would be so appreciative. Thank You.


@ LastNerve just keep resting ,take the slow lane relax. it takes a bit of time for you and your body to adjust and get used to this new addition. plus it also take time for scar tissue to build up. Praying God gives you comfort,patience and protection during your recovery bringing you to a successful happy ending and a new chapter of living with less pain.
Thank You God.

Prayerfully lifting LastNerve up even now.

Thank you for your kind prayers, dear friends, and that includes you too Cheryl.
It has been really rough pain-wise - they under-medicated my pain becuase I start to breathe too shallowly, so I had to just get through the days any way that I could. I had thought that this would just be a little surgery, but it was NOT. Not for me anyway.
I have rounded a bend though, and now am up and around a bit. But as soon as I post this, it's back to the sofa and rest.
I turn on the machine for a half hour or so, then off again, becuase it stilll is making the wound site sting too much. I will increase it as the days go on.
Thank you again for all the kind prayers, and I am open to any and all advice from anyone that has been down this road before me.
Oh, I thought that they would have put the device under my collarbone, but it is a bit lower, kinda hidden in my right girlie-lump. That was news to me!
Love to all,
Lily
