Holy Cow Rick! You posted under the effects of Morphine and you only had, like, 3 grammatical errors?

You ARE AMAZING!!! Truly Amazing!
Keep up the good work and remember we are thinking about you. Thanks for the post and the Very Good News!
Give yourself a chance to heal.... We will allow you to walk...But THAT IS IT! Any other exertion and we're going to come down hard on ya'

With GREAT respect

Rick,
You're doing good if you can post this soon. The next couple
weeks won't be any fun, but keep your focus on the fact it will
be over with soon.
Wishing you the best!

Glad things went well for you Rick!

Do that walking! Epidural is a good thing.

If anything starts swelling, elevate it with a pillow. :)

Keep us posted.

Way to go Rick!

You're on the downhill side now - do walk all you can and obey the nurses! You'll be gaining strength daily. Thinking about you lots an glad the surgery is behind you. Onward and Upward!
