I'm sure you hurt...hang in there. Leaks are common, more so than you think. I assume you are now leak free and just hanging in the hospital bed. Remember to rest, relax and let the pain killers work for you. Do what the docs tell you to do.
As soon as you can get up and walk, sip and walk some more. Sip some more too.
Hang in there Dawn, you can do this. Keep your eye on the prize. I know we all want to have everything go smoothly, but sometimes it just doesn't happen that way. Consider this a blip on the radar screen. You have a long way to go and I'm sure they found the leak - fixed it and you are now all better...at least physically, now pain wise you aren't, but it will go away.
Oh yes, and welcome to the dark side.

I'm sorry to hear that, Dawn. Thank goodness they went back in and fixed the leak. Try to relax. This is not the easy part, I know. All my good thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery.

Oh Dawn, I'm sorry to hear that.
Hang in there. I've seen more than a few people, especially revisions, heal from their leaks and go on to do very well. So sorry you had to go through a second surgery.
Hopefully you will be on the path to healing and it will all get better from here, day by day.
