_**I'm home from having a balloon compression done and soooo excited. I am painfree!!!!! I was suppose to have the surgery today but they changed it to yesterday. I'm dentist like numb and could care less. I wish I could mention a surgeon's name because this guy is the best. I was at Sunnybrook emergeny (huge hospital in Toronto Ontario, they have everything there) Monday morning and they were doing nothing for my pain. Said they could not consult with my surgeon , who by the way works out of there. I emailed him and told him where I was. He replied almost immediately and told me he had surgery all day but would see me in his office at 8 the next morning. My daughter and I stayed over night in a hotel because we are 3hrs away and saw him on Tuesday morming, by 830 Thursday morning I was pain free. I could not be more happy. Now I can only pray it stays. I know not forever but I am going to enjoy my time. I will tell you this....He put a "D" on my cheek and the nurses said 'Oh ya there goes the....his name....mark. LOL Apperently it is his trademark.**_ _ **Anyway alot of you, and thank you so much for caring, asked for an update.** _ _ **Take care of you,** _ _ **Linda** _ ---

_ **Thank you so much for all the good wishes everyone. I wish it for you all. I am really so enjoying this. Everyone around me home, friends, work...etc. They talk about the fact that I can eat again and don't get me wrong I am enjoying that but it is the little things in life...like brushing my teeth as long as I want lol. Only my friends here understand that joke. Please do everything you can to be pain free and of course...** _ _ **Take care of you,** _ _**Linda :)**_ ---

Me too! So happy for you and for your family to be able to enjoy you to the fullest. I wonder if Hamlet ever said, “To brush or not to brush…this is the question.” May you be pain free for all your days to come. Xo Bellalarke ---
