Pete: Mama Bluebird is the best! And I'm gonna repeat what I said earlier here. Take time to heal slow and heal well. One day at a time, my friend. Listen to Mr. Stupid here (me), who thought he was going to take on the world in a week and made a big mistake. Too much activity created some issues I hadn't anticipated and set me back two weeks.
So sit a while; get up for a while; walk; drink the 3 1/2 quarts of water a day; take your meds, and before you know it, you'll have plenty of days feeling like you never had surgery.
Best to ya, Keep up the good work!
