My first client could text me in high spirits about three hours after her surgery. The next day, her gynae commented that she was healing very well, and told the nurse that it was unnecessary for her to be on liquid diet. The client herself shared with me that she was "glowing" and she could chat with me in her usual high spirits. Today, she's discharged and when I check in on her this afternoon, she said that she was doing her laundry!
My second client is also doing well. There were concerns re the surgery due to her age yet it was necessary. After the heart valve surgery, she was in ICU. Just received an sms earlier from her daughter that she will be transferring to a general ward soon.
Healing sessions for pre-surgery strengthens the person and definitely accelerate the healing process as well. Besides physically strengthening a client, the sessions also help the person to stay calm and positive. It is something that everyone can include as part of their preparation for any surgery.
Updates (5 March)
People who met my first client days after her surgery were completely surprised that she's even gone for one! Most women, after a hysterectomy, would also be bleeding for a bit. My client did not at all. She's been up and about, and out as well. She's also fondly nicknamed me the bum un-numbner. Her bum was aching from lying too long on the hospital bed. After some whizzy whazzy, the ache was completely gone. Hence my new nickname. :)
For my second client, four days after the surgery, she's been transferred to a normal walk, is her usual chatty self and could walk with her daughter to the foodcourt. "She's really doing so well," as her daughter shared.
