A Wedding and a Health Update - 6/16/09

Yesterday my son David married his fiance Jennifer.  They went to the court house and did the deed and then called to tell me.  We'll have a party to celebrate once I'm done recovering from my surgery.  I'm very happy for them and wish them a long and happy life together.   I guess I now have 3 more grandchildren from this union; Amber, Brittaney and Nicholas.

I had my surgery on Thursday the 11th and did quite well.  No problems.  I'm already driving again and really not having much discomfort at all.  Today is the last day for the antibiotics and I go back to see the surgeon on the 27th.   The initial pathology showed no cancer and I expect that further testing will have the same result.  I already feel tons better than I did before the operation.  I have more energy and enthusiasm for life.  I guess the problems I'd been having were really dragging me down more than I thought at the time.   The worst part of the whole experience was the bowel prep before hand (think colonoscopy prep).  Its too bad they couldn't have just done that too while I was in there.  That's still on my "to do" list for this year.
