  That is normal...to lose words in speech or typing,...so is getting overly emotional...so if u start crying for no reason...know it is the healing process and the nerves being over stimulated.

  Glad to hear u r home and doing well...and sleep is a way to healing.,..so rest as much as u can...but do not forget u do need to walk too and do ur neck exercises to avoid stiff muscles and to help prevent scar tissue.

That is all I seem to be doing is sleeping. I slept 11 hours last night. That has been the first time since the surgery that i didn't have to get up in the middle of the night to take pain meds. When i got up i had to take some, but it was not as bad as i would have thought it would have been for going so long with out any that night. I am so glad though that it was that painful.

Thanks for the good thoughts everyone it really has helped.

Thank you for the prayers and thoughts. Having this site has been so much help and has made me feel so much better. Not alot of people know what we go through and its nice to have someone to talk things through with.

I will try to have my husband post after my surgery to let everybody know how i am doing.  If he doesnt then i will when i get home.

thanks again everybody and i hope everybody else is doing well and feeling good :)
