It appears to mean slightly different things to each person, and this is how I'm learning -- from everyone here.

I'm still dealing with owning my own feelings about this person, although I realize I'll probably be letting go. There's too much dishonestly and manipulation by him/her.

I'm sorry you had to endure that surgery, but your breadth of activities for today is a testament to how vital and alive you are! Congratulations on taking great care of yourself!
