December 6 Morning Update

I’m feeling quite well this morning. In fact, I’m feeling the best I’ve felt in several days. But I’m a morning person. This afternoon my not be quite so gracious to me.

I called and spoke to my doctor friend and he thought I sounded the best he’s heard me in several days. When I talk I find I don’t develop an oxygen debt. I wonder if it’s because I’m further from my last chemo treatment or from the operation on my lung.

Either way I feel ready to go home.

I’ve had a bunch of people listen to my chest and they all say, “Sounds good.” I have found that to be a very unsatisfactory answer. I would like to have the doctor use a stethoscope that has a built in microphone. Then, when they listen to my lungs we can record the sound on the computer. Then I can compare how I sound now to how I sounded a month ago.

Maybe I should get my own stethoscope and I could listen to myself. I wonder if that works.

You made me laugh this morning reading your Dec. 5th Final Update. You are a great story teller. I could hear tell the story. You write exactly how you speak. I am so please to hear you are doing better today. Each day you are in my prayers. The last couple of days you sounded a little down. I am so happy to hear you are on the up swing. Maybe it is because you are a step closer to coming home. I am sure Danny is going to be so excited to have you home. We hope to see you back at the office. Everyone askes for you everyday.

Glad to hear that you are feeling better and that the doctors agree that your chest and lungs are improving.

I know the Vorlon Assistant and the Vorlon Wife are looking forward to you returning to work.
