I'm now 6 weeks post surgery and I can finally bend over and blow my nose! Those were the two restrictions that I've had to deal with for the last 6 weeks. I never thought I'd be so excited to be able to bend over and pick something up or to be able to blow my nose! Just a little milestone I'm celebrating!! Recovery is going great other than ongoing facial paralysis that will likely require additional surgery due to damage to my facial nerve by the tumor.
Now the bad news....now that I'm off restriction, my wife will now make me pick up the dog poo when we do our daily 4 mile walks!

Glad you are doing well!!!
I had surgery about the same time as you and my stiffness is getting much better. I am not certain about the mental fatigue part but I am slowly getting more alert and active in my day to day activities. Things get better.
My facial nerve is still a bit compromised but it is also getting better. Hope the additional surgery required for yours will help heal it.
Take care and enjoy picking up the poo :)

Congratulations to you both.
You make me laugh on the dog cleanup patrol!
