Day 23 - Recovery

March 4, 2012

Thought I'd post an update on my incisions just so those of you who are interested and not freaked out by that stuff can see the progress. I'll post the incision pictures at a small setting. Maybe that will help not freak everyone out. Click on the picture to see it closer.

First, as I said a while back, all the dogs seem to be taking turns checking up on me. Here is Spring Hill taking her turn.

Next, I've got a picture of my arm incision. Most of the glue is gone and the incision is healing up nicely. Not sure if all the redness will fade but most of it should. Right now I can still feel a little "tightness" when I turn my arm a certain way thanks to the little bit of glue that is still there.

Last, I've got a picture that I debated not even posting. It's one of my chest incision. There are several scabs from when the incision was seeping blood after I came home. The scabs are stuck to the glue which hasn't all come loose yet. The glue is starting to let loose though so we've got good progress there. It still hurts when I laugh though.

Day 22 - Prayers for friends in the path of storms

I missed posting the menu the last couple days. Not going to get it done again today. As I said in an earlier post, if I sleep in too late I end up just not seeming to get it done. I also don't have any recovery news today. Life  and recovery are progressing smoothly.

So instead today I just want to send a prayer out to my online friends who were in the path of yesterdays storms. As a gamer I have met people and made friends all over the place. Yesterday, I saw the names of a few towns where some of my online friends live. I just hope they are all okay. I've not seen any twitter or facebook activity from any of them since yesterday morning.

I'll resume my normal menu and recovery news tomorrow. Provided I don't sleep in again. I slept in really late this morning.
