Friends,Hip Hip Hurrah!!! Sue is going to be discharged tomorrow. She is walking, talking and eating. I cannot tell you how happy we all are....Sorry, did not post a comment for a long time but here is the best one of all. Sue is officially in recovery mode. Yes, this is going to be a long recovery, but I am sure Sue will make the best of it.Sue is struggling with -post-op headaches (may last for several weeks)-fatigue from the smallest amount of exertion-left eye blinking problem-left side facial slackness-and plain boredomSo, this what what we hope will happen in the next few weeks-headaches will slowly fade away-efforts to strengthen herself, will allow her to conquer her fatigue-the doc's will implant a platinum weight inside her eyelid so that it will help her blink-as time goes by her facial nerves will start working again. To start off a physiotherapist will stimulate her face with electrical shocks followed by facial exercises-boredom...hmmmm...blogging? knitting?I still cannot believe that it has been exactly two weeks since we found out about Fred(the tumor)and her marathon operation last Tuesday to get rid of him. This week seemed to last a life time. I am so glad the bloody week is over.Thank you for all the outpouring of love, good wishes, good vibrations and the lovely flowers and e-song. Susan loved the e-song and plays for all the people who come to visit her.Sue plans to do a Sinead; requires a surgeon to do it because of the sutures. Lest see what happens!!
Love you all
Sujoy-
Sue, currently uses a cane to walk. But her brain does not want her to walk for too long.She is exhausted after walking for 5 minutes.

Glad to hear things are going well.
I have to type fast though, the electricity is about to get shut off here for the next six hours for some type of repair. So, Keep going Sue, we're all with you!

Hi Sue,
I am so glad you are doing well. Very cool you are up and walking around. Take it easy and do what your doctor says and ROCK ON.
Love,

Yeah man!
I am about to imagine Sue ala Sinead with a top hat and cane ... mmmmm. You will be dancing before you know it. But, remember those "baby" steps first. Your body has been through a tremendous stress. It needs time. Be as patient as a lovely, bright, active Leo can possibly be for this type of rest break !!!
You are an amazing family. Love and prayers all around you ~*~

I don't know Sue or really anyone else on here, but I have been following her story, and thought I would say get well and that it's always good to hear someone has pulled through. I'm rooting for you over here in Virginia!
Aw, Sue... what a great comeback from this whirlwind medical episode! See, I told you soon you'd be looking back and it'd all be in the past... Just keep pushin' forward!
Best!

It will happen Sue, but I understand your frustration. The trouble is, you've too much Superwoman in you to be told things will take time! Still, being Superwoman has brought you through this far, so it's not to be knocked. Sending more good wishes for the most complete of recoveries,
