Thank you, lovely ladies for the outpouring of prayer, support, and positive thoughts that you sent during a very difficult time for me. I am on the mend, the operation was successful and I am healthy and recovering.

As Angie mentioned in her thoughtful update, it will take some time to recover. I am so grateful to be living in a country and a city (Boston) where the medical help and expertise is so plentiful. This whole experience has brought that fact to light among many other things in my life that I see more clearly as true blessings. The YLF community is one of them.

I have been following the blog as I can and will hopefully be able to comment some on posts.
I have new purchases and just ordered some premium COH denim leggings as a possible recovery present. We shall see if they fit- I do not have the energy to try much on right now. During my anxious moments I made some really silly shoe purchases that hubby will be shipping back.

Thank you all again and I look forward to thinking about fashion more than health issues!
