Scarves for victims of abuse, pattern ideas added post 963

[grannyannie]

Hey Ann, you know we will be thinking of you and sending and prayers.

We will certainly keep an eye on the site, you just take care of you.

 

The scarves on the site are very pretty. The ladies on the ville always do such nice work.

Thank you, Pat! I can always count on you ladies!!!

I'll be missing for a couple of days next week (Thur and Fri) because I'm having surgery, my gallbladder needs to come out. If some of you "regular" folks wouldn't mind keeping an eye on the thread I'd appreciate it. I should be home by Saturday if anyone has any questions that can't be answered by going to my website.

 

Hi!!! I'm baaaack!! I'm wishing the best for you, my friend. Don't worry about anything. I'll keep an eye out for the thread, too. You just hurry up and get better!!!! Big cyber hugs to you!! :hug:hug:hug

[Miss Crochet]

I've heard that gallbladder operations are no big deal nowadays (but who likes going into hospital, no matter what the reason? ) Fingers crossed for you and big hugs going out! We'll keep the home fires buring on the thread

Hi Olivia! That's right, the surgery is supposed to be "no big deal!" That's what I keep telling myself, lol! Although I do seem to have the luck that things go wrong at the last minute, lol! My SIL (an OR nurse) told me to at least consider that I might wake up with a MUCH larger scar than I planned on and a week's stay in the hospital. She thinks they might have to do the "open" surgery on me! I'm planning to be back here on Sat morning!

Dear Grannieannie:

 

Dont worry none we will keep you in our prayers... I had gull bladder surgery and well they made me sign papers before surgery in case they had to do it the old fashion ways.

so i did and well guess what when i woke up i was trying to feel to see which ways it was orthoscopicly or the old fashion ways ... the nurse said Ms lugo what you looking for and i droggy as can be said, how was i cut? she Smiled and said the short ways ...

 

then she said by the ways Ms Lugo can you tell me who on earth do you care so much about that when we were trying to wake you you said Wait, I'm trying to send a email to my friend and you are disrupting me...

Can you imagine that.... I blushed and said Is that all I said????? She said Yes dear...

 

Well then they took me to my room of course i had to stay over night, I was not a happy camper i wanted to come home the same day.

I tell you one thing i didnt get a wink of sleep that night i sat and stood up all night looking at tv and out the window i was just so uncomfortable sitting and laying down ...

then i came home and just went into my bed and slept most of the day... No better place than home in my own bed...

 

You will be fine dont worry ......

God be with you and he will take care of you...

 

My surgeon said that my gull bladder was the size of a grapefruit and that i was lucky it didnt burst and I was extra lucky he was able to take it out the new ways....

See God was with me too so I know he will be with you...

hugs

Lillibet

Grannieannie, I had to have the bigger incision for my hyterectomy because of my size and shape, so I know that's not the way you want to go, so I hope she's not right for your sake. I hope you heal quickly. I started making scarves for the twelve scarf thread and found I don't like scarfs so much. So I have two I would like to send your way. One is pink with hearts and the other is white with blue fringe.

[Pat1957NC]

I have 2 scarves I can send. Please PM me your address and I'll get them in the mail soon.

 

Pat:cheer

Your right, I do not want the bigger incision! I have my fingers crossed, but have my bag packed with yarn and hooks just in case I have a longer stay,lol! Thank you for the scarves!

Good Morning Ann, I was just thinking of you and wanted to wish you well tomorrow on your surgery.

 

Oh, I finally saw your banner - looks great.

 

Yes, I am crocheting scarves:lol It's almost time to start looking for those lightweight patterns. I think I'll stay away from the cotton ones though:rofl

Good Morning, Pat! Thanks for the well wishes! I'm trying to "tidy" things up around the house and get a couple of meals prepared for DH ahead of time. Trying to not be nervous, but it's not working,lol!

 

The banner is nice, isn't it!!!!

 

Yes, it is almost that time to make lighter scarves, although winter weight are welcome all year round too! And why not give the cotton ones another try! Come on, you can do it!

[Miss Crochet]

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatttt? You're making cotton scarves already???? You're optimistic! We had a crazy hailstorm today: I was teaching in a classroom with big windows when it started suddenly. The students who were smoking outside ran in, shrieking, as they were getting pelted with hail. I had to laugh, it looked so funny.

 

Just came on to wish you the best of luck tomorrow, Ann. Fingers crossed, they'll go in and whip it out with the minimum of fuss and bother. :clover Looking forward to seeing you back on here, gallbladder-less, at the weekend

[tonyal]

wishing you a speedy recovery. I had mine out a few years back. after the first few days no big deal, i just have to kinda watch what I eat. (*hint stay away from fast food, and fatty stuff and eat very soft food the first few days. )

anyways I was looking through my stash and found a few fun colored yarns and they are screaming to be made into scarves. so i will be working on them this weekend. can you send me your addy, when you feel better?

Ann's surgery was accomplished without complications or surprises. We had a short visit Thursday night @7pm.... she was groggy from the meds and in some pain but this was expected. She was happy with the level of care she was getting. She was moved into a regular room before 11pm ( the delay was because they were waiting on others being discharged ). We expect her to be discharged some time today (Friday 3/13). She sends her regards and hopes to put in an appearance no-later-than tomorrow Saturday 3/14...... Andy

Thank you, Andy, for letting us know. I'm so glad the surgery went well. I've been praying for her and thinking about her. Please give her a giant hug (don't squeeze too hard ) from me. Tell her to rest and not worry about talking to us. I'm so glad that she's ok.
