LOST AND FOUND—ANOTHER POST-OP UPDATE

 Early August 2021

Though it’s good to note that healing continues to move in a forward direction, my recovery, following the removal of my right lung, progresses two steps forward, one step back, slowing my pace toward reaching my goal of feeling so healthy as to enjoy life with my family and friends. And knowing this healing process to be lengthy, I’m grateful for every day that’s peaceful rather than grueling as Thursday proved to be.

So what do I do when my recovery takes a turn for the worse, because something unknown is happening inside?  First off, I remind myself that whatever is going on within this complex machine, named Annie, is of a temporary nature.  And secondly, I think back to the earliest days of my recovery when I was much too weakened to pen a post on my own, so my sons pitched in and did that for me—Between my family and Mayo’s caring hospital staff, all of my needs are met, and feeling well cared for and deeply loved frees positive energy to focus on healing, every day, from the inside out.
