Saturday, May 13, 2006- Please enjoy the site. I haven't felt like posting , but I'm feeling much, much better. I would say I have recuperated about 85%, and my post-op pain is negligable. My breathing is still not back to normal, but improving daily.

Kristy, my daughter from OK, and her family, are visiting this Tuesday, and we are going to take a trip to Gatlinburg together. Everyone is very excited about it. We will stay Wed., Thurs., Fri., and come back Sat. The two youngsters, Addison and Braily, could change our schedule, but we hope they will have plenty to keep them busy and entertained. More later.

Saturday, April 21, 2006- We are back home from the hospital and from all indications the operation was a complete success. Most of the post-op pain has lessened, but I'm not yet on the tennis courts.

Monday, April 10, 2006- We spent most of the day covering the transitional odds and ends prior to any hospital stay. Hopefully it will be of short duration with no problems and complete success. We attended our Monday night pot-luck dinner held at the Activities Center, and not only enjoyed the good food, but also appreciated the feedback from many well-wishers. Tomorrow is the big day of the operation. Later, dudes.
