The surgery went well. Since she had torn muscle in her thigh the surgeon said he sewed it but that it is possible she may have a slight limp.

She came home Sunday after spending an extra day. Everything was good until we went to bed. She absolutely could not stay asleep. Finally, at 5:00 this morning we went downstairs and put her in my recliner. That was what she needed.

So, all in all a good outcome so far. Physical therapy should be starting tomorrow.

Thank you to all of you for your thoughts, vibes and prayers.

Peace,

Lonely Bird
