    Hi
    Its must be so good to be home, and now like you say the hard work, but going off what others have said it is well worth it
    Wishing you well with it, and please let us know how it is going.
    Love
    Barbara

    Well done, diamond! You are right about the hard work and exercises but don't forget the other bits ie rest and elevation. Housework can wait....and wait....and wait. I hope it goes well.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    Glad your home Diamond! Well that's the hard part over part 1!! Now hard work part 2 starts!! But just think of it as insurance for the new parts! Glad your back from hospital and that the operation is now history for you. You can look forward to the future now.

    Wow Diamond, that was quick! It must be lovely to be home but don't start getting too impatient, yes it's a lengthy road ahead but it will be shorter if you do everything in moderation, pace yourself with the exercises and rest whether or not you think you need to! Let us know how you are getting on and keep well. DD
