: Getting comfortable :

It's been three weeks and two days since surgery, and I'm doing much better at the halfway point of my recovery period. I'm planning to go back to work on Feb. 20 (the day after Presidents' Day) so I have about three weeks remaining.

I haven't been online much lately because I haven't been able to sit upright in a chair comfortably, which is still true. It may be several months before that happens. However, I did order and have just finished setting up a rolling laptop desk that is now parked next to my bed so I can work on the computer in bed.

My new laptop desk

Over the next several days I'll be posting my SRS experience in several installments, based on the notes and photos I took while I was in Montreal. But as for right now, it's just good to be able to type and use the computer again, as it was difficult typing with the computer sitting on my bed beside me. Having another table nearby also helps by giving me a place to put my books, lubricating jelly and paper towels for dilation, which I'm doing four times a day, each requiring about 30 minutes.

That's all for now, more to come later.
