[OT] Mum update

My mother had her hip replacement operation on Friday morning. She was back
in the ward by noon, the surgery going without a glitch. She was kinda out
of it for the rest of Friday as you'd expect, and Saturday left her feeling
very tired and croaky because of the tube that has to go down the throat
during surgery. But I rang her on Sunday night, and she was bright and
chirpy, and was pleasantly surprised about how little pain she was in - in
fact the most pain she was experiencing was from the other hip, because she
had been immobile for the last two days!

She thanks everyone for their kind thoughts and said that they must have
worked! I'd also like to thank you all for caring enough to send purrs to my
Mum.

We have been purring and praying and sending all kinds of positives from
here, even if we didn't post. Now we will push it into high gear that her
physical therapy to learn to use the new hip goes as quickly and as
painlessly as is possible.

I'm glad to hear she's doing so well. I hope that trend continues.
