You remember that today was Carmen's surgery, right?
She asked that I pop on over here for a quick visit to update you all on her status. So, Here I am! I got a note from her moments ago: out of surgery, still groggy from the anesthesia, and it was a little more involved than they thought. But still, she's out and ok. (More details? I have none and they are not mine to dish out either. I'm sure she'll share more when she's ready.)
Oh. Who am I? Headless Mom, nice to meet you! (Has anyone ever given you the keys to their blog? For some reason it has been incredibly nerve wracking for me. I hope that I make her proud. Or something like that. Or at least not make her so embarrassed that she deletes this immediately. Heh.)
Anyway, since she's given me the reigns I'm going to take a little liberty here and ask that you all leave her a message of encouragement. Her recovery shouldn't be too bad, but it will be so nice for her to have some lovely words to read over the next few days while she gets her strength back. Thanks!
PS-If you happen to be one of the 7 other people that live in Carmen's house? Could you give her a hug for me and let her know that all's well over in the blog direction? Thanks!
To Carmen, REST! I know that you don't rest well, but take care of yourself. (Insert your mother's voice here.)
Bye all! (I'll be updating for Carmen if she needs/wants me to. Don't hold it against her...)
Carmen, hope you are well and resting! I will be thinking of you.
