hi folks
been a while since i've had a chance to get on here. wanted to say quickly that it's wonderful to see all these people with improvements. thought i would share ours.
katz' improvements have been fairly low key but we have a little 13-month old who has been a bit crook (just the flu) and also just learned to walk (woo!) so we haven't had much in the way of good sleep since the operation. she's a bit of a handful! katz is still always tired, but the interesting thing in my opinion is that she's coping so much better than I am - the reverse was true before the op. she is able to smile at night when i get home from work, and her spirits are much better than before the operation... from where i sit, the change is profound, though she doesn't really see it.
previously she would be wracked with fatigue - but these days she's really just the same kind of tired that anyone with a toddler who is lucky to get 6 hours sleep in a night, is going to be.
so it's really hard to say that there is a definitive improvement - because she is still pretty tired! - but my personal opinion is that in the past she would have had serious problems dealing with the last couple of weeks, and instead we're going out for dinner tonight after a long hard day with a sick baby.
along with this there isn't much improvement in feeling in her hand but again it's been tough times. hopefully things will improve in the sleeping situation soon and we can report some more decisive news... though honestly I think it's all really great.
everyone else's news is awesome... this is da bomb!
cheers
mark
