    2muchwhine….I’m touched. I am out of ICU, noe in rm.425 on 4E, Swedish CherryHill. Good pain meds,very little sleep, eating real food, and yes it feels like I’ve. been kicked in the chest by some big animal. They’re surprised at how well I’m doing. Me, too :)

    Inspiring! So glad to hear about your solid recovery JanS! I trust you have been receiving the excellent care you so deserve!

    I enjoy your many perspectives here…

    Would be awesome to see a picture of you reading a Get Well Soon card & flowers delivered personally by Kootchman…

    ‘kay, Jan.

    I’m getting around better, though still a bit hobbly, than I presumed I would be when I e-m’ed you recently.

    If I don’t make it up the hill over the weekend, I’ll try to Rapid Ride it out to WS!

    well, Mike..you have to quit with the faling stuff. I am living for little things…like ..a shower. I had one this morning, and it felt wonderful.Surgeon told me this morning that if he graded patients on a 1-10 scale for how well they’re doing, I’d be at 9.5. Painkillers certainly help :)

    Jan Recovery sounds like going good. Positive thinking, determination and lots of moral support can work wonders.

    Well, thanks, everyone. The support means so much. I am doing relatively well. Have had some ups and downs, but for now it ‘s up. Having breakfast at the moment -fresh fruit cup, oatmeal, sausage, egg, tea. Could be worse -lol.

    Up is good – how’s the food? I seem to remember the food at Cherry Hill being pretty edible for hospital food.

    let us know where you land so i can bring miws in to see you…

    you know how much i love a twofer and getting to spend time with both of you is a definite twofer ;->

    kdldg..

    miws is right.. we were all strangers here once…

    your idea is a good one..

    sometimes it takes someone from the outside to realize how easy it is these days to be efficient about things like meal delivery to those who need a little help..

    and on the plus side…

    jan gets to meet a whole new bunch of potential best friends…

    potential is all any of us had when we started posting and meeting one another
