New Maxine is doing well and holding her own. No pain since my redo on 17 February 2018. I have been blessed to have my grandbabies and daughter here with me for two weeks. They live in Boston so it was quite a trip for them. I have started to experiment with new foods with great success! I went from being able to eat hardly anything, to being able to significantly add vegetables to my diet. It has been great! I so missed them for the 7 months of Old Maxine who strictured shortly after she was created. New Maxine is always ready to try new things! So far, she has liked everything! It has been very hot here and that is one thing New Maxine DOES NOT like. She chafes very easily when she's too hot. I have to take extra precautions in the heat. Hope all of you are well.
