I'm sorry the wires got crossed and you're there another day, ABC. So you give the snow one more day to melt of the driveway. Not a bad thing...

Annette, A new day and new adventures for you will definetly have you on your road home and back to recovery! You aren't missing much with the rotten weather and sloppy meltdown.

One day, one step, and some "quiet time" will do it ! I rode by the beach yesterday and Mother Nature sure has painted a winter wonder out there. Soon you will be back to see it for yourself.

Keep up the good work to repair that very special heart of yours!

Pretty new to this site and so far finding it very helpful as I prepare for my surgery. Hoping this turn out well for you. What I found interesting is that you too had Hodgkins Disease. I am a 58 year old female treated for Hodgkins in 1974. Sadly breast cancer 2004 and now Aortic Stenosis and Mitral Valve regurgitation. Curiously when researching surgeons did your surgeon have much experience dealing with radiation? Truly do not feel that this is a situation they encounter very often. Would love to hear from you but more importantly get yourself better.

Hi ABC,
Sorry I had to leave you at Northwestern instead of a ride home like I brought you to the Hospital this morning.
I just left your boys at Shorelane and they are going to miss their Mom for the next couple of days. They will be purring their prayers for you too.

All is well in Indiana but lots of flooding on the way home on all of the roads.
Be a good patient and get well soon.
I will be glad to pick you up for the trip back to Indiana.

Hi, Annette since I am awake and all is quiet here I decided to send a msg. So happy to know MJC is home safe and sound. What an adventure she has had including a historic snowstorm and related eents.

You are really focusing on doing what you need to do for a great recovery. Great to have the "kitties" for entertainment. Do you have need of food or litter for them?

It is amazing what our body does to heal itself. Just one day at a time, one step at a time, and one good sleep at a time and you will make a great recovery!

So glad to hear how well you are recovering....
Great time to be nestled in and taking it easy. I am so glad to see the support and affection people have for you in LB...it's quite awesome actually...of course so "well deserved".
I was so sad to hear about "Mallie"...such a great companion...but if only Mallie had a "personality"!
Not sure how Don is getting through it!!
I better try and reach out to Don to make sure he is ok!
Keep up the great work...you rock girl!
Annette Corbett  Awww love you Joe. Yes, I'm a lucky girl.

Now keep up the good work. Isn't it great that the only thing anyone can do right now is stay inside, keep warm, and read or sleep! Let me know if you run out of reading material or just have a need for something, anything!

Great to hear you are home and posting again! Enjoyed your sister's posts while you were recovering.

Sleeping in bed is tough. I slept in my recliner for the first month. Even with a wedge pillow I believe it was the 5th week before the bed worked. Now, in the 8th week, I can finally sleep in the bed with just a regular pillow.

Your walking program seems right on track. Stay warm and stay inside! Best.
