Yay David!! So glad to see your post! Get lots of rest and heal and mostly behave yourself. Good vibes and prays continue.

Went in for some routine corrective surgery on the 27, deal with PAD. Everything that could go wrong did, and a few other glitches as well.

You got a stent or two .. ??

You got a stent or two .. ??

Couple, yes. Left thigh.Bypass left calf. That all went well - before every thing crashed

Maybe due to immunnotherapy, who knows.

But at least on slow mend.

 

[Nermal]

Well, better than nothing.

 

[Zazie]

I'm so relieved to see you here, @DavidOck. I have been worrying. It turns out I was right to do so, but my worst imaginings were blessedly unfounded. I hope the pace of the mending picks up soon.

 

[DavidOck]

yes, still slow but headed the right way

Ugh! This week is going to be ugly for us too. Mon. and Tues it's supposed to be 99. I've got stuff to do in the yard, but definitely not this week!

Today I took the boys to the movies to see Elio and then we picked up pizza on the way home. Tomorrow I'm taking them to the pool. With these temps I may even get in.

Yep. Here in NW NM, mid june feels like mid july.

Willie, how are you holding up in the heat? Please be careful and drink plenty of fluids.

 

[misswish1]

Nermal - what kind of temps are you getting? Highest here was 109, today is down to 101.

 

[Nermal]

Temperatures from the home (outside) thermometer have shown as high as 101 here, too. At the same time, bank signs are showing 98f.

Sorry if I repeat myself, but here in NW New Mexico, with an elevation over 5,000 feet and usually clear skies, it cools off real well after sundown. Right now, at 4:00 a.m., I have a reading at home of 66f.

Move out later today to rehab, and expect more PT there - good

Progress slow but steady here in the hospital, they just don't have enough staff for good PT.

Surgical "wounds" all healing well, no issues there. So, in general, doing as well or bett3r than expected.

But does Chump know what he's gotten the US into??

 

[misswish1]

That's great news, David! Rehab can do much more for you. We miss you here and want you back.

Mowed yesterday because I had to .. shaded areas were OK, I drenched myself with the hose a couple times, stopped every 20 minutes and cooled down .. when I did have to step into direct sunlight, it was like a laser beam from space ..

“Come, you masters of war
You that build the big guns
You that build the death planes
You that build all the bombs
You that hide behind walls
You that hide behind desks
I just want you to know
I can see through your masks"

Pearl Jam did a really good cover of that song.

I just did a read-back, been off ECF for about 3 months.

Be well David. You and yours are in my thoughts.

Haven't heard that, but imo hard to beat Dylan on it.
Made it to rehab late yesterday, we'll see how quick i can now recover.

Don't melt, Will!
