That's great news. I'll bet her customers miss her and will return.

First thing, I'm very glad to hear she's doing better everyday. The most important thing is she is still with you..I have found from past experience that most customers and business partners deal with the individual.."people buy from people" I'm sure when your bride is ready to attack the business again she'll be surprised at how many of her previous clients will be more than happy to come back...because of the relationship.
Just make sure your there to support her at all costs..she's one tuff chick, it doesn't sound like anything can hold her back.

Hey man, that IS great news. You are right...very lucky to even be here! I can only speak for myself, but if I had a hairdresser that I was happy with, and went some place else because I HAD to, you bet I would be right back in her chair as soon as I was able to! Not only that, but I'd be tippin pretty heavy too!!!
Best of luck you her and you all.

glad to hear she is recovering well. Keep reminding her not to overdo it though. my wife had back surgery 2 months ago and everytime she gets feeling better she over does it and puts herself back 3 steps. SLOWLY is the speedy road to recovery.

Glad to hear that your wife is doing ok, I pray for a full recovery for her so she can get back in the saddle. As for her customer base when she goes back to work; in time she'll get them back and more. I'm in the military and everytime we PCS my wife has to start all over from scratch with her daycare business. Takes a little time but eventually she's back up and running.

I can only imagine how tuff it's been on you to see her in that condition and be at the mercy of Dr's....

Here's to a continued and speedy FULL recovery!
