It's cloudy, cool and grey in the Emerald City with no signs of witches or flying monkeys. I think there must be poppies somewhere today because Mike is tired. Actually, Mike didn't sleep well last night. He has these things that look like shipping boots (for those of you horse saavy people). These boots pump up and down and help with the circulation in his legs. They are on to prevent blood clots (Sue you get this right?) They, according to Mike, are also on to disturb your sleep.
So, he is tired, a little impatient and a little cranky today.
Even though he is all these things he is still a trouper. He's been up walking seveal times today. He's been unplugged from his IV, started on oral meds, his diet has been advanced, he did stairs with Jessica and Adam from Physical Therapy (did you hear that Al? Stairs!) He also changed his ostomy while MJ his ostomy nurse looked on. Dr Munera Kapoura, aka Moonie and the rest of the staff are seriously impressed with Mike.
I am impressed by my husband. He continues to make excellent progress and for that I am greatful. I am so greatful.
Peace,
Karen

You go Portage Rat!!! Well it is about 40 degrees and a beautiful sunny day up here. That city air isn't good enough for you two, come home soon.
Karen, don't forget about the water if the witch comes around.
Lots of hugs and love
P.S. Hi Linda!
Thinking of you both. Hospitals are terrible places to sleep :) If Mike could use a laugh, tell him that my cat is at the vet today. Seriously, she is - having a little procedure or her own. Hopefully, he'll remember the story :)
Sending our love,
Sherry
