Holly had a very good day yesterday and great morning today. NO MORE NAUSEA!!! Amazing what giving her a different pain med will do. She was better within a few hours. She has not needed anti-nausea meds since changing pain meds. It is amazing how many of you have responded that percocet makes you nauseated as well, it does not do that to me but everyone is different. Holly is sitting up for extended periods and is doing really well, now the next step is for her to gain her strength back. She has walked around our cul-de-sac (six houses) and then she is spent. She needs to build energy and I see this will be a gradual process.

Holly will get her staples out tomorrow afternoon. The incision is not going to be noticeable after it heals, even if it was not above her hair line. It is a very clean incision which should heal into a little white line.

Holly will take over the blogging soon. She says she wants her first blog to be something profound. I think she is still figuring out what her profound first entry will be. Stay tuned.

Hi Holly and Cortney,

WoW! It was so great to hear your nausea is better. Of course since percocet makes me totally, unbearably nasueous I was sure that was the reason.

Gees, the photo of the surgery incision really brings home how serious of this operation.

Beth and Bruce are coming to visit July 8th. Bruce has business locally and Beth will come with him and they will stay with us. It will be good to see them. I've scheduled a cooking class one afternoon for Beth and I and we have a Wine Club dinner another night so we will be busy.

This weekend we have Craig's little 5 year old granddaughter's (Lexi) birthday. I will be taking her for a manicure or pedicure (her choice) on Sat morning and then to buy a new outfit. The we will take her to the park for her party. It should be fun.

Love to all,
Mindi
