Well, Roz is not quite wearing silk pyjamas.... yet. (She is still confined to what I'm sure she would describe as a deeply unflattering hospital gown). However, hopefully she'll be progressing back towards those pyjamas sometime soon.
The spinal fusion surgery seems to have gone well yesterday. She spent 18 hours in intensive care but is now stable enough to have been moved and all the initial signs of post-operative recovery are good. If things continue well, she'll be in hospital until next Wednesday. Lots of small steps every day... right now she looks like a sleeping Pippi Longstocking with her hair in two braids to keep it out of the way and hospital compression stockings instead of stripy ones. She said to say a massive thank you for all the wonderful comments and words of support on her previous post. They really meant a lot to her. The next post will be when she is up to it herself. She has asked that any comments for this post are left for her to read first and then publish so please be aware that the comment number will probably stay at zero for a while. We are all wishing her good healing, strength and speedy recovery.
ps: these photos were actually taken by her dad one lazy sunday morning a couple of months ago.

Have been thinking about you and your family Roz, get well soon xxx
I'm so glad to hear she's making good progress - and what lovely pictures of her! I'll definitely pray for Roz to keep on mending up nicely :)
Fingers crossed our favourite blogger returns soon. Roz : I was talking to some of the fashion team at Vogue (work experience) today about my favourite blogs and mentioned how much I loved yours. They loved the idea of you styling your own blog editorials. I've told them to take a look.
Get well soon. x x x
You are our favourite blogger!! We hope you get well soon so you can post some more amazing pictures for us to enjoy!:)

I actually thought for a moment he'd shot them today, until I saw that wonderful last shot on the couch: so Audrey Hepburn!
(Having seen the lobby to the hospital, tho, I wouldn't be surprised if these satin pj's were stand hospital issue. It's not what I'd expect architecturally..)
Please send my very best wishes. So relieved to hear it's gone well. I actually found out you had posted via Stephanie, in the States.. funny old world, we're all connected and all sending 'our' Roz all our good tidings. Hope all the family is holding up well, you're probably operating on little sleep, but a lot of love.
(just realised I forgot to sign in but guess you figured by the length of this comment, it's Jill ; )
May you have a swift recovery Roz, we'll miss you but want you to get better first :)
all the best to her and you
All the best beautiful girl, your last post was very touching. xx

It's so nice to hear everything went well!
Get well soon again!
Oh, God, Roz! I'm SO happy to know that your surgery has been a success! I've left only one comment in your previous post, but have been thinking about you A LOT. Hope you get my prayers, and well, if you're not a believer, my good vibes :). I'm not such a religious person myself, but strongly believe that good thoughts turn into positive energy, so hope you're getting all of it.
When you're fit enough to write, we'll keep chatting, all right?
All the best of luck! Think about pretty things if you're in pain. Listen to your favorite music, read books, relax your mind and focus on your recovery.
Hug!
Miki.
Take care and heal quickly, all the best, Maria x
So many well wishes and good positive energy going out to darling Roz! And to her mommy - you must be delighted having raised such a strong and special young woman. With every post I cannot believe this wise, witty and wonderful girl is merely fifteen! You should be proud!
Roz - hurry up and get better so we can collaborate on that blogging art piece! And so I can be inspired by all of your stunning outfits.
With love xx

Hello, I just read your post below. You are such an unbelievably brave person. Thanks for sharing your story, and I hope the surgery goes well for you.
The way you describe the photos about non-silk hospital pajamas.. hilarious! :D lol

So glad to here the surgery went well Roz, I trust you are on the road to a speedy recovery and will be up and about creating beautiful and inspirational posts very soon! I really admire how you made that dress to show how you felt about the spinal condition, especially the shot with the tree. Amazing photos and backdrop as always!
Very best wishes, Alexandra Thérèse xx

these photos appear as though they're from a vintage hollywood film. very classic. roz has such a versatile look.
roz, i mailed a get-well card today, trusting that you will receive it eventually! my goodness, the mail from the US to UK takes forever, apparently.
kisses and wishes for good health and quick recovery! xo
Seeing those comments must mean that you are well on your way to fully recover and getting home soon. I'm really glad about it, best wishes again.
So since Jill asked for our participation in your Mummy scissors experiment, here is the link to my fast contribution.

Ohh my... get well dearie! I hope the surgery wasn't too painful, that you'll recover quickly and that you'll be able to wear your own clothes, not the hospital gown, again soon :)
Much love. xx
Just discovered your blog through Pearls post about the scissor mummies.
I discovered I had a curve in my spine back in year 7 through a routine check, my right thigh bone is 1cm shorter then my left so my back has curved to compensate the difference. Luckily after having 6month x-rays for several years there was only a small gradual increase so I don't need to have them any more unless the pain gets worse. Mine is more like an S instead of a straight l and I have only found one other person who has a similar problem. I am lucky enough so far not to need an operation but I hope your has gone well and you have a full recovery. I am now following you to see your progress and find out what you will post about in the near future. Best of luck x
I'm new to your blog after reading a post by Pearls of Wisdom about your interesting blogasphere project. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
I received a lovel email from Jill concerning you and your amazing courage. God knows what you must be going through, but it is a breath of fresh air to hear someone so young speak so freely and openly about such a condition.
I am glad to read that all went went and you are recovery. All the best and I am looking forward to many more posts to come.
Best
xx
i hope the recovery is going well, you are in all of our thoughts lady! xo
ps beautiful photos!
Total Hitchcock vibe from these photos!! Beautiful.
