Update on Mike... Wednesday post op

Sorry for the lack of recent updates but life's been pretty good with steady progress.
Mike's been enjoying his recovery at home since being dismissed from the hospital last Thur.
Simple activities that everyone takes for granted like standing, sitting, turning your upper body and eating food are getting a little easier every day. One of the more difficult activities has been turning in bed--which he does several times each night--but even that is getting easier.
We're anxious to see the surgeon tomorrow (Thur) morning for his first follow-up. Hopefully, the staples will be removed along with the okay to resume more of Mike's pre-surgery diet as he's lost about 10 pounds.
We will also talk about his return to work. Currently, Mike can't wear normal pants nor sit upright in a chair for very long. So, unless wearing robes/sweat pants and a recliner are an option in the office, working remotely may be the only near-term option.
Thanks again for all the good thoughts and prayers. They've carried us to amazing results in an unbelievable short time.
God is good!
