Last update on Dicksbro's surgery
 

I think I can go back to regular postings.

Saw my surgeon yesterday and he indicated that the chest and arm incisions from the triple bypass are healing very nicely. Still be several weeks, but it's going great. Legs show swelling, but they did a sonagram to assure there was no clotting (none, thank heavens, as that would have meant back to the hospital). Instead, it's just blood accumlating in the legs which will be helped by some medication and doing more to keep my legs elevated.

Still means short visits to pixies, but, at least I can visit. :D

Will start cardiac rehab meetings on Monday.

Thanks again, everyone, for your thoughts and prayers.

Hugs or handshakes to ya' all! ( Other options available on request :D )
