Great news!!
I will assume that he will get stronger & stronger everyday.
Thanks so much for letting us know Mrs. Rebarman.
Taking care of him & yourself comes first but try to keep us informed if at all possible.
Let him know that we are all thinking of him and hope to hear from he-himself asap.

I am getting better each day. I did manage to send off 2 whole emails  :)  (1 to Kathy) before my "tolerance" had been used up last night. Got home about 6:00pm on Sat. and have spent a good portion of the time since then in the bed, the barcalounger, or as a pinball bouncing off the hall walls between the 2.

Thanks to each and every one of you for being there for me last week. Because of you and this site I had a good idea of what would happen and how the week would turn out. Because of you, I wasn't very far off on how I percieved it was going to be and how it actually turned out. Thanks again for being there.

I have the usually dizziness when I move too fast, I have a slight amount of left facial droop that will go away, and I have finally found out what everybody means when they say the worst cooks that have ever been found on the face of the earth all work in hospitals. :)

I will post more as time and energy permit, but I am on the other side and opening fast on the road to recovery.

Hang in there!  Continued wishes for a speedy recovery! :)
