Surgery Successful!

Monday Will picked me up around 1:30 and we got home around 8:00.  The spinal cord stimulator is IN--for good.  

My test drive was so surprisingly effective at reducing foot and leg pain that getting the permanent one was a no-brainer.  I see the light at the end of a long tunnel--and just hope it's not a hallucination. 

The pain from the incisions and the wearing off of anesthesia make this a less than enjoyable week, however. Tomorrow I get to take a shower and remove the bandages and do whatever I feel like doing except for driving.

I have great friends who have brought food and Freda who's walked Luci for me.  I hope by tomorrow to be able to walk Luci and move a bit less robotically!
