      Re: Vacation ... sort of

      Update:
      Second surgery today. 127 minutes this time, rather than over 3 hours the last time.

      And it seems practice makes perfect. The anesthesiologist did a much better job of dosing her this time. She was hardly sick, alert, and good coloring right after the surgery.

      Back to blackcat the homecare specialist. But I think we'll both do better the second time around. I forgot to ask if this was the half-joint replacement or full-joint replacement ... I suppose it doesn't matter as long as it was the right choice. =^..^=
      If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
      1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
      2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
      3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
      4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
      5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

              Mrs. blackcat is home. She's moving around better than before but the pain is worse. Her confidence level is better. =^..^=

                That's really good news, the confidence is because she's more mobile, the pain will quickly subside. She's lucky to have such a caring, supportive husband around her, keep up the good work

                  With the assistance of the PT and two nurses, Mrs. blackcat made her first trip all the way up the stairs to the 2nd floor since surgery. By herself, she's limiting her stair practice to 5 up, 5 down. She's ditched the walker yesterday, and is using the cane only.

                  We both got a nice surprise this evening. Mrs. blackcat cooked dinner. Me for two reasons: 1) I didn't have to cook, and 2) she's a much better cook than I am. I believe she's on track for a 01 Jan return to work. =^..^=

                    I am assuming that this means you returning to work as it seems she already has, i.e. cooking.

                      Woo-hoo you two, good job - hope the rest of the recovery goes well. As an aside, David, be careful of the weight gain from a better chef than yourself .

                          We've reached one milestone. Mrs. blackcat has surmounted the stairs up to the 2nd floor now twice in two days. I'm afraid I'll have to fight for the covers again soon. The cats make it difficult to roll over, but hardly ever steal all the covers. =^..^=

                            Great news ! Glad to see your Mrs. is making nice progress after the operation.

                            On the cooking part you are lucky. My girl managed to stick pancake on a ceramic non-stick pan

                            Wish you both a lovely Christmas , lots of health and happiness. With love Philip, Linda and Martin
