    Hi Honey

    I'm home. Gawd.

    My neck brace reaches halfway up the back of my head, up to my ears, and has a convenient chin rest. This sucker is huge. Once again my doctor used the "impressive" word, I evidently had a large amount of calcification.

    Just took my drugs, I'll probably be asleep soon. Tomorrow I get to take a shower!!!!

    You're done! Welcome home. It'll all get better from here.

    Yup, the burning is already gone! Little bit of tinglyness in my left hand, but that should fade.

    Welcome Home, SNAP!!!!

    Ooh, sorry, I probably shouldn't shout while you're newly into recovery.

    I can't tell you how relieved I am that you made it thru this part. Now rest up and take care of yourself, ya hear?

    drugs

    Snap, good to hear your surgery went well. What's the name of it again? I wonder if i could find video footage of it being done? What exactly do they do?

    Anywho, take those drugs!

    Now comes the part where you get to relax and enjoy not being at work!

    Get better fast! I hope you can get comfortable in that brace.

    It's great to hear that you made it through the surgery well and are adapting well to your brace... I hope you are NOT thinking about work!!!

    Are you going to decorate your brace for Halloween?

    There is a lot you can do to decorate that brace. The idea of a feather boa is great. Or maybe some stickers.
