Recovery at Nanny's

I'm giving a thumbs up here and it's a selfie but I do not remember much of this day after surgery.  It took me quite awhile to come out of the anesthesia.  Anyway, looking good with no makeup and a tube in my nose!!
We are familiar with the plate presentations at St. Joe's hospital from Brad's say there.  They are lovely and here is my breakfast, pretty flower included! 

Night night.  I get to go home tomorrow!! 

My old "girls" are gone and underneath these bandages you will find a clean incision across the center of both and they are concave.

A selfie...I am obviously still loopy from the pain killers...
Treats, flowers and sweet messages were delivered.
Oh sweet Olivia and the sign my little nephews and niece made for me.  Love it. 

My mastectomy was Dec 9 so don't forget I had to get Christmas up before it all happened.  Here's another selfie of me and our humble tree. 
My little Samantha joined me as I recover and she was suffering from another one of her headaches.  I love this girl and will let her crawl in bed with me any day. 

This is my "Nana's blanket that was delivered to me by my Aunt Mary from California.  My dad brought it to me and when I opened it I smelled it (because Nanny was an Avon lady and she had a wonderful smell).  Sure enough, I smelled my Nana and started to cry.  She's been gone a long time but I feel her presense with me sometimes. 

One of my favorite photos of my recovery.  I was grateful to be at Nanny's while I recovered for many reasons.  This is one of them, the visits from family were frequent and Olivia made my day on this particular day. 

Once I was able to get out and about I went to the temple grounds and took a nice look.  It brings me peace being there so this made me happy.
