It's been 1 week since surgery. Tim is doing fine. He is up and about. There is a roof top lounge here - where you can go see the view of the city - we've been up there a couple of times. They will have music at noon - sometimes; and massages on MWF in the afternoon. We've not been up there at those times. May try tomorrow!!
Over all we are just here - but now that March madness has begun.....Tim's in 7th heaven! I don't know how long the NCAA games last - but I can see our stay extended - again!! He must be feeling better - he's looking for ways to get pizza, wings and beer delivered to the room. I can see the nursing staff hanging out in our room! Guess we'll call that "personalized care - pass the wings!"
Of course I'm looking for anything to giggle about - the nurses start in about 4am - drawing blood; then bringing in meds and something to drink; then it's breakfast - and coffee, etc.; then he must get all hooked up with his IV's for antibiotics - and then....a shot of lasik! Up to this point, Tim has been in bed - enjoying all the attention. The shot of lasik goes to work quite quickly - and he is working madly to scramble out of bed and into the bathroom. This happens regularly every morning like clock-work!
Tim doesn't have a lot of hair - but needs a haircut. I've thought about looking for some surgical scissors to trim him up. I'm a little hesitant as I'm not real good with cutting hair! Probably by the time I'm done - the doctor is liable to walk in and wonder what is wrong with him - and make us stay another 2 weeks - while the hair has a chance to grow back out!
I had plans to get out today - and am leery about going in the afternoon - when traffic is more busy with school getting out and everyone getting off work. I'm also getting into a lazy pattern - but hope I can get out in the morning - and tour around Cleveland a little and be back by mid-afternoon - for a nap!!
Purdue is playing - so will stop and watch the game!

It is good to hear that Tim is doing good. Is he up to a phone call yet?

It's great news to know that he's on the mend! But as for his getting spoiled by the nurses, etc, what else is new? We've been spoiling him in the quartet for years! Your sense of humor hasn't left you yet, so I guess that's a good sign. Do take care of yourself and please don't cut his hair--at least not while he's eating breakfast. "Locks" and bagels don't mix!
Be well and know that we're all thinking about you.
