Journal entry by Amy Stolzenburg —
WOWZER! It has been 3 months since my original surgery and 2 months from my oops surgery 😅 I realized that I should just give a quick update about life for Amy since surgery two!
April 3rd was a BIG day in the Stolzy house as I was finally able to get my drains out. I have a whole new respect for those who have to have deal with ports, drains, etc.
That being said healing has been coming along nicely and I am finally able to focus on the reconstruction phase. I went back to work on February 27th and continue to get a little better everyday. Not quite ready to play volleyball or service pivots with Dad, but getting laundry accomplished is a big WIN! (Who are we kidding...... that is a big accomplishment in general 🤪)
While there were a couple of bumps in the road over the past few months I am thankful for the outpouring support I have from the greatest family and friends that a girl could have!
As my journey continues to get better I am able to get back to normal and reminded to enjoy the little things just a bit more now..... here are just a few memories 🥰

God Bless!
