A new week begins


Back to the grind today and a second week of rehab. I started the morning with my normal IV an then headed over to rehab where they had me do 20 minutes two different times on the treadmill and 4 minutes on the boke. It is funny how your legs can get so dead so quickly. It seems like not that long ago I was able to max out a leg press machine and ride a bike for a good amount of time. Now four minutes is all I can muster. Things are good though my hempglobin is up to 10 and my INR is up to 1.9. Doctors are still optimistic which makes me just want to do more everyday. I asked today about when I would be able to golf, and to that my rehab coordinator laughed and said next spring. I however did get some exercises to loosen my shoulder stiffness and hope to beat her goal and play late this year. Mom leaves this weekend for Boston and I am finally cleared to go into public so that is a good thing. I got a haircut today and for those who know me, you know how I was chomping at the bit to get it cut. I am starting to feel better everyday with a few setbacks here or there. All is well in Indiana and it is starting to get to Chili weather. I have had lots of good food from you all and have had time to work some things that I had been meaning to try myself. I signed up for a grilling class that teaches some pitmasters barbecue secrets in Spetember and am excited about that. I am posting this picture for you who have not seen my wound. Scar is not bad and hopefully I will gain weight soon. Well thanks for tuning in to my life and ttyl.
