Later on Saturday

Tim is doing well. Tim has been up walking several times and has had some apple juice. There is nothing else to do! I don't think Tim's up to anything else, either!
He's been asked several times to compare this surgery to his heart surgery.
He says - of course he hurts in different places.... it's a little easier to get up. He can use his arms to help - with the heart surgery he had to use the adominal muscles only. He feels with this one there is a little more pain - more uncomfortableness. He said the heart surgery was a "shock" to his body - and it was tougher to move. It hurt to attempt to roll or get up. It hurt to lay down. He didn't move or want to be moved for a few days. The nurses had to move him. This one he was able to move a little. The next day after this surgery - he sat up on his own and was able to get up and walk. He is able to take care of his own needs a little easier with this surgery.
He doesn't mind chatting - so feel free to give him a call. His cell phone is here too, now.
Thanks to all that are thinking and praying!
