What a terrible situation. Sending you home with Tylenol as your pain management medicine. I agree with you. The next time have a pain management plan in place before surgery.
I hope your recovery is quick. I vote for as much ice cream as possible.
Glad you are able to handle communicating with your subscribers.
So glad you're back and on the road of recovery. Thanks for sharing your journey and being such an inspiration for finding beauty and wonder in any aspect of life (even the tasking ones). May your recovery continue swiftly ❤️🩹.
I also enjoyed reading your newsletter issue the other day for creatives & creative businesses. Again, so inspiring. Take care 🤗
Watching the sea move in and out always does it for me. Wishing you a complete healing experience and may you never go through this again. It’s enough already even for one with an enormous level of courage. I’m still amazed at the incompetence of some members of the medical profession in an age where so much more is known about the importance of handling patients in a caring manner and how effective healing is speeded up by sympathetic care.
"Beauty heals. To offer it back to the places of our own brokenness, or to that of a hurting world, is a profound gift. And it is a gift each one of us can bring in our own ways." FABULOUS TRUTH! I'm sharing that with others! And I am that odd neighbor too, staring at the beautiful sky. I am SO sorry your surgery recovery was so difficult, and that your multiple attemps to advocate for yourself were brushed aside. I love your way of hyper-focusing on new & hopeful as a pain manager, celebrating & slowing down, & savoring coffee, watching the wind. ALL sound like a perfect prescription for healing. I found WONDER unexpectedly March 14th, when I glanced out the back window saying good-night to the evening, and caught the RED lunar eclipse! We pulled out cameras & the telescope & enjoyed the show.
Oh, dear Michelle! So sorry you suffered so, and worse that you were gaslit over it! Prayers for a quick and perfect recovery 🙏🏼
I’m loving being creative every day along with this group of creatives. I’m starting to see improvement in my landscapes and skies! It’s been a fun journey and I’m in for the long haul. But I’m 100% locked in on landscapes right now! Can’t quit. Won’t quit! And I love looking at the hashtags to see what others are doing too!
So glad you seem to be on the mend and able to express in a beautiful way your sense of wonder that surely has helped you cope with everything life has thrown at you. I wonder constantly at how we humans have such a capacity at all! I also enjoy and marvel at the beauty of nature, especially sunrises and sunsets!
As a former New England resident who has moved to North Carolina, I am finding unending wonder and joy in how different the month of March is between here and there. Formerly March has been my least favorite month. In New England it was still cold, sloppy with semi melting snow, very muddy, and just ugly. Here in NC it is spring. The flowering trees are quite a show, flowers are popping up in the garden and beginning to bloom, it's warm enough to go without a coat.
Michelle, praying.for your speedy recovery. Even through the toughest things he's got you. Thankyou for your descriptive words that keep us captivated. Looking forward to more beautiful sunrises and sunsets.

As someone who works in healthcare l’m so sorry you had to go through this.
I’m very glad that you’re starting to feel better.
Prayers for speedy recovery! Your beautifully expressive writing is a joy to read. ❤️

A rare pair of bluebirds in my yard. I immediately bought a bluebird feeder and hope to entice more to join our little troupe!
So wonderful to hear from you‼️. Keep taking care of yourself❣️😇
