I'm home ! I thought they'd never let me out !!! This morning I had no "temp" so I was released..and I have to tell you.. I not only hurried.. I didn't collect my reward .. LOL well, I was due another "Shot" but I got away.. or should I say, "I escaped"...
Rather than go into all the details..just think "Murphy's Law" ..and from there it's history.. What can go wrong will for me..and it never ceases to amaze me..I always constantly hear.. "I've never seen anything like this before" that shall be my Epitaph (sp).
Anyway, I'm home... I want to thank "All" who sent well wishes as they are so appreciated.. I didn't have computer at the hospital and hubby is not into computers other than work, and they all told me to look at my stay as a Hiatus !!! (They had to be joking).
I had a neat roommate..and a Nurse that was straight out of the Cuckoo's Nest.. in fact we called her "Nurse Ratchet"...LOL You now understand why I did the picture
Ok, I need to rest up.. as I have to have this procedure done again in a month on my other leg.. (yeah only one leg done)and I perish the thought !
I see by the looks of all the pictures that the Sista's Liz, Carolinagal and Beth are heading to Alaska and enjoying the Ride .. and also Echo posted Wooooooooo hooooooooo and even "Sparkle Plenty" .. gosh so good to hear from you Gals..
Nasoosie..(Soos) your camping spot looks heavenly and boy I sure wish I was there ..and a Pork Roast.. Oh ! what a great thought...
Before I forget.. yeah I even collected a recipe LOL My roommate was having a birthday and family brought up a cake.. and it's a low cal too.. she called it "Celebration Cake".. and I immediately thought of all YOU !!!
Now I'm gonna lean back and catch up on all the "news" and then fall out in my recliner..'tis a little sore right now..
So again, I thank you from my Pea Pick'n Heart ..
God Bless Zeee
PS My Critters dang near knocked me down guess I was missed
I am very glad that you are at home and next time you have to go have the other one...maybe Murphy could go on a long vacation. I am praying for you. Get the rest and I hope you feel better. ohlucy
hospital stays are never fun, and I'm so glad you are home now. Will send you some good positive vibes for your therapy now to get that knee healed up.
Ava, I posted the Celebration cake.. I wished it was my knees done.. but I had stents put in my arteries..next year is the big year for Knee Replacement.. Lord willin'
Again, thanks all..
God Bless.. I'm hitting the recliner.. well not actually hitting..but gently walking over and leaning back..
So good to have you back! Yep, home is the best place for recovering! Only you could go in for surgery and come home with a recipe! Oh, my! I'll have to go check it out. Get some rest! Glad everything is going well.
So happy to hear that you are home and can now truly begin the recovery. I have never found hospitals to be restful at all.

Glad you are home and settling into that recliner Zeee! I'll bet Nurse Ratchet met her match with you there! I'll place my money on our ever-luvin' Barbzeeee any day!
Good you're back home, Barbz. Murphy seems to be a popular person-I've met him on a number of occasions. Now, if he were a she, things would probably go much smoother. Take care and remember, you don't have to do it all yourself. carold
I've heard 'hospitals' ain't what they used to be ...So I'm really glad you're home...Prayers & good vibes comin' your way...You take care...ya hear ???
Soos, In answer to your question.. Yes, my plumbing on the right leg has been fixed.. Right after they opened her.. I felt the warmth.. in fact Dr asked me " Hey Zeee, you feel that ?" Sure did !!! in more ways than one LOL Now as for why they didn't do both legs.. I think because I had some major problems..but also maybe because they go in the Femoral Artery.. on the Right side for the Right leg.. Now I might be wrong.. but I don't know anyone who's had both done at the same time.. I think they wait to see if the "Stent" holds open.. as there is a possibility of them closing down.. Had that happen with my LAD in my Heart.. soooooooooo... and besides.. the compression they use afterwards..ooooooh I don't think I'd want that around both legs.. OUCH !! But I did suggest to Dr... How's about PVC piping.. that chit lasts forever ??????? Had a few chuckles in the OR...guess they thought I was joking.. NOT.. it works great in the house for plumbing.. LOL.. now that was funny ....LOL and don't wear out and if it clogs just use Liquid Plumber and flush away.. LOL I'm doing ok.. just a tad bit sore.. and of course have this wicked wicked bruise.. I mean to tell you.. it's a lot of color..omg and I have this huge lump.. which will go down ..slowly.. can't drive for a few days I think he said two weeks.. had some problems as I said.. but then I go back and in another month Lord willin' and the Creek don't rise.. I go in again and have a repeat on the Left side... mmmm wonder who my roommate will be and if they cook or bake LOL..
Ok, that's about it for now.. I'm starving and I hear noise in the background.. Looks like I have some company.. and they are bringing in food..alrighty.. it smells devine.. and I hear this foreign language.. LOL
Have a wonderful day all and I'll catch you all in the Morning.. for Coffee and then some !
Zee....so glad you are home and sounds like you are mending well.......have missed you so and you have been in my thoughts.....keep us posted on your recovery.....we're all fine here...
