The Surgery Season

Recovery is its own season, and nobody hands you a map for it. This journal walks the sixty days after major surgery with you: the slow body, the hard nights, the help you have to accept, the small wins nobody else can see, and the woman you are becoming on the other side of the incision. One short reading and one honest question a day, with full permission to rest. In paperback or hardcover on Amazon, or as a fillable digital edition on Payhip and Etsy.

A chronic pain workbook written from inside the reality, not the outside looking in. Nine short parts in plain language, made for low energy and brain fog: the energy budget and pacing, a flare plan with cut-out wallet cards, rest without guilt, scripts for saying it out loud at appointments, and a full symptom tracker toolbox to hand your doctor. Bad-day pages are made for circling, not writing, and six nature coloring breaks sit between the parts. It will never tell you to push through. In paperback on Amazon, or as a fillable digital edition with nearly 1,200 real text fields on Payhip and Etsy.
