SunshineWalker/Katie Had Major Surgery - 2X in the Past 2 Weeks

Oh my goodness! Thank you for updating us, you and Katie are definitely beloved members of our little community here.

Sending all my love and best wishes to you both.

Katie, I wish you a speedy recovery and hope the worst is behind you. Sending hugs your way.
Dave, you're an awesome man and a great husband. I'm sure you being by Katie's side through all of this made it so much easier on her than it would have been without you.

Please keep us posted, you're both in my thoughts.

My God you have both been put through the wringer by the sounds of it. :O

All my wishes for a speedy recovery and that her pain is a thing of the past. :please:

THANK YOU!

All of your support means the world to me and to Katie.

She's progressing well although today was a little bit of a setback as she had some dizziness. It appears that's medicine and exhaustion related, not due to any issues from the surgery. We will know for sure in the next few days.

We both spent most of the day in bed.

Thank you all again and I will keep everyone posted.

Wow Dave! That's quite the ordeal that you both have been going through. Thanks for sharing with us. We'll all be praying for the both of you!!

What a stressful time you have had! I'm so glad the problem was finally able to be fixed, but how scary! Glad she was able to keep her hearing and balance too!

i'm sending good vibes your way. i hope Katie makes a speedy recovery and glad that u are there as her rock.

Prayers are going up for both of you and I wish your wife a continued speedy recovery! :please:

Prayers, big prayers

Hello everyone,

Thank you all for the prayers and the kind words. I think they are working because I am starting to feel better!

My ear right now feels clogged, and "rings" alot. I cannot tolerate lying on my right (surgical side), which is a pain because apparently that is typically my position of choice as I cannot get comfortable to sleep easily on my left side.

It's very bizzare that I have been out of work as long as I have. I was talking with my family today, and literally this is the first time that I have had this long of a chunk of time unemployed since Junior year of high school. Two of the weeks I was really in recovery/sleep mode, but now I'm starting to putter around the house and using the opportunity to get some cleaning and decluttering completed.

Dakski has been a godsend, even though this has been incredibly hard on him. He has been there for me in so many ways and I don't know what I would do without him. Thank you all for thinking of me! Lots of love. Katie

Hey, it's SO great to hear from you! What a terrible thing to go through...I hope it's smoother sailing from now on. Hugs from all of us! :grouphug:
