Dear Friends,
If you've been wondering where I am....I've been in the hospital again!! A minor surgery on my colon again. After a little over a week, I'm home to heal for 3-4 weeks so I can go back in for a resection surgery. I'm so discouraged...and crying about this one! The timing is that surgery will be in 2 weeks.
My orthopedic surgeon has found after an MRI 3 wks ago, that I have a torn rotator cuff...shoulder of right side....that was killing me and affecting my arm, fingers and shoulder and neck. This cannot be operated on, however, until the other surgeries are healed.
All in all, I expect I'll be through with surgeries at the end of Dec., or first part of Jan. Then, I can start physical therapy for my right arm, etc.
My capacity for stitching is low, but I am doing some slow stuff!! LOL I'm reading alot and just resting as I just feel weak and not very energetic!
Latest book I'm really loving is, "The Seamstress." I just am captured by it. It's a new book, and doesn't sound wonderful on the jacket review, but it is. It's the story of two sisters who take very different paths in life, but still maintain a strong bond to eachother...it takes place in the 1930s in Brazil. Just a fascinating book, and a wonderful story.
Sending love and hugs to all. I think of you often. My stitching and friends keep me going....
Hugs,
Deb

Here's to a speedy recovery for you, Deb! I'll be waiting for a multitude of book reviews while you rest! :o)

Aw Deb, I'm so sorry to hear you are having more surgery. I'll keep you in my prayers and hope you have a speedy recovery.
Keep your chin up, you have lots of friends sending healing vibes your way.
Hi there Deb, so sorry to read things are not good for you just now ! I am sending good vibes from England that things will pick up again real soon for you :)
I know a little of what you are feeling as I trapped a nerve about 2 years ago in the cervical part of my spine which affects my left arm and it still plays me up even after loads of sessions with an osteopath.
Take care lovely lady big (((hugs))) xx
Poor Deb - sorry to hear this. Keep positive thoughts as we send good wishes your way. I had shoulder surgery this year but luckily my rotator cuff was damaged but not torn so my surgery could be done arthroscopically and was not too bad. Will be checking in to see your progress! Take care.
Well, goodness! I sure hope your surgery/recovery goes well! Rest up, and heal :)
A hug across the miles. You have a lot on your plate at the moment. Sending good thoughts your way and wishing you well as you go into your operation.
I owe you a huuuuuge email - so much has happened. Will get that off to you next week.
love,
My dear, I am so busy that I have no time for blogs and computer. This morning I was almost shocked when I read your message. I wish you a prompt recovery and I hope you will be fine again soon. I want to send you a small token of love and luck from Italy but I cannot find your address. Can you send it to me?
Your friend

I have been missing you, came to visit once and a while, but nobody there! I hope this surgery will bring some comfort, and wish you all the best!
Oh, poor you Deb! You are having a rough time. Although I'm badly behind on my blog reading, I've been thinking of you and wondering how you are. Focus on how wonderful you'll hopefully be feeling by the end of January! And look at all the extra reading time you must have just now!
Hi Deb,
So terribly sorry about your health issues...:( I hope everything will be back to normal soon.
Thoughts and prayers are on their way for your speedy recovery!
Hugs,
Lody
Sending lots of good wishes for a full recovery. Take care.
Hope you are doing well dear friend!
I tagged you....so sorry...
I was wondering where you had gone and I am so behind on my blog reading - ((hugs)) to you and I really hope that you start to feel better again soon x
I'm sending good thoughts your way along with everyone else's. I know what a torn rotator cuff is like. I lost the use of my arm for almost 2 years! I hope you feel well soon.
Deb, I'm so sorry you have been through all this and that I hadn't checked on your blog, or anybody elses, for ages. I send you all my love and loads of {{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}
