Just a hello, non-update

At present, I am taking it hour by hour, resting when I need to, doing when I need to, and putting my body's healing FIRST. I am currently in Houston trying to get back to a good balance, which is often difficult after any surgery. Any surgery is a trauma on the body and I'm just allowing my body to get through it. When I feel I can think clearly about all I've been through this week, I will update with details. For now just know that the surgeon was happy with the outcome, I am alive (which is no small deal at this point), and what I need is to just wait for my body to do what it needs to do. I hope to be able to travel back to my home, my boy, my parents, and my piggy by the weekend but I'm also allowing for flexibility just in case. Godspeed.

    Exactly. You must take care of yourself first to be able to take care of anyone/thing at all. So told to me a rabbi from long ago.
