Today is Day 350 of my Daily Food Diary.ย ๐
My first win for the day is ‘Yay, I am home from the hospital, the operation was relatively uneventful, and I am not too much the worse for wear. ”ย The anesthesiologist ultimately decided to go with a spinal freezing instead of the general that was planned as it would be easier on my lungs.
My second win for the day, was having Dan with me for most of my hospital stay, picking up a couple of prescriptions on the way home, and detouring to McDonalds to pickย up a late breakfast/early supper for both of us.ย
My Daily Food Diary win was being able to easily handle any fasting and diet restrictions that needed to be made over the past couple of days.ย ย Easy peasy!
Today it is 32 years to the day since my father passed away.ย We were fortunate to have had him for the time that we did and none of us would have wished for him to suffer the effects of cancer for another day.ย That being said,ย losing him so close to Christmas, in the midst of carols and festive decorations, was beyond difficult. Today my thoughts are with my father and with all those who are mourning the loss of a loved one during this holiday season. My heart truly goes out to you.

I believe that the great success in your op was in a large part, due to how youโve been looking after yourself, Anne! Congratulations! Iโm sending wishes for speedy and complete healing. Big hugs on the loss of your Dad, and especially at this time of year. My maternal grandfather passed at Christmas in the 1960โs and to this day, my mom mourns his loss every Christmas season.
