Progress Report

Today marks two weeks since I had my surgery. I am coming along according to plan. I can get around with the walker pretty well, I have even been able to drive a couple of times for short distances. There still is significant bruising on the outside of my leg which makes me somewhat uncomfortable especially when I am in the machine which exercises my leg; and I am supposed to do that six hours a day. I still get some sweling in the leg when I am up for a while.

Tomorrow I go to the doctor's office to have the staples removed. I think there are 37 of them. I hope that then my skin will stop feeling so tight.

Now that I have quit taking the Tylenol 3 pills my system has returned to normal and I am sleeping better. Last night was the best night sleep I have had in over two weeks. My appetite is still not what is used to be but that is a good thing.

I want to thank you all for your prayers, I am healing well. Now please pray for Valerie as she looks toward her surgery next week.
