Dianne,
Thank you for your support. I hope that you are beginning to feel
better also. It has been my experience so far that the recovery is a
little different with each surgery. Are you taking any pain meds that
might be causing your trouble eating? I think once you can eat and walk
around more you'll start to get more energy again. My thoughts and
prayers are with you for a speedy recovery.
