Just talked briefly to Lisa - I can't call her noises really talking tho. We need to put her to bed, unplug the phone and computer, hide the car keys, serve Grandma's chicken noodle soup, hot tea and honey and lemon, lots of prayers, well wishes, and rest............. Good luck accomplishing that, Adam.
Anyway, Lisa needs a few days rest, let's all keep helping each other. Everyone does a great job at that. Linda
Thanks everyone..it must be working! My lungs are much better today and the fever broke... No I still can not talk..and I have been advised to stay indoors during this cold snap we are having. But slowly getting better!
THIS time no one needs to keep me down.. I HAVE LEARNED MY LESSON! I am not leaveing the house until I REALLY can. normally I would say...heck with it and hit the road tomorrow!...not this time - MAYBE by Monday.
Best to all!
Lisa

Lisa I am recovering nicely. Tomorrow I get the staples out. There are times when I think I can feel the pacing mode kick in. Especially after PVC's my heart beat feels different. But like they say when babies smile, "It could just be gas."
I started going into the office part days on Tuesday. After about 3-5 hours I run into the wall so I come home, rest, ice my incision and relax. Every day I feel stronger. I expect by next week I will be back to full steam. I have very little pain, but do feel like I wearing something two sizes too small.
Thanks for asking.
Peace,
Leon
