My first day home for recovery was outstanding. I still can't talk much because I start coughing as soon as I do and coughing, although therapeutic in my situation, is painful. I started on my new life style of eating small portions of nutritious food about 6 times a day. Sharon made some excellent food and I delighted in every morsel. I still have no appetite, really, but eating was still wonderful. I feel stronger already. I have a lot strange sensations and some pain in various places in my torso at various moments, but I haven't needed painkiller during the day. I can engage in moderate activity, and my breathing is the limiting factor.
Josh is joining us today for support this week. I'm looking forward to seeing him. With his help, I think we will make some quick progress this week. I can see that it will take a number of weeks to adjust to my new organ placement and complete healing from two large incisions. I'll be on the phone as soon as my breath allows me to.

Bob and Sharon - It is so great to know that you are past your last hurtle and making a speedy recovery. We have missed you the past several weeks and look forward to your return to Pacific Grove. Chuck, Mike and I have been playing too many 3-somes and look forward to a fully recovered par-shooter to fill out our group. You are constantly in our thoughts and prayers.
