A few more pics from the cruise. Our kitty tried to stow away in our luggage, too.

@Dave - I have no idea how you did this! I’ve got three more weeks of non weight bearing and I’m dying!!! You are a rock star! I can already tell a size difference between my calf muscles. Love the photos. Parrots, Macaws, Conures, Cockatoos are all beautiful birds. I think you look great with the parrot on your shoulder. You just need an eye patch and a jug of rum and you would fit right in with the Caribbean history.

@Anaconda - I hope you get your knee surgery soon. Recovery from my tendon surgery is a pain but it’s the first time in almost a year that I’ve been pain free. Right from surgery I’ve been pain free. I’ve also been following the doctors advice almost to a tee. He wanted me to take a month off from work but that wasn’t going to happen. I hope your surgery goes as well.0

For some reason, this month, the TickerFactory site will not cooperate with me at all; it just keeps flashing when I try to change anything like data or style. I'm using it on my PC. If anyone has advice, or another ticker site they use, please send it my way. Thank you!!0 -

CONGRATS to @LEANZ on making GOAL!!!
Glad you guys are enjoying the photos! You're the first to see them. I haven't even posted them on Facebook yet. I'm a little behind there.
@DEAN - I'm super glad you've been pain-free! That's what will make it all worthwhile. It'll will get a little sore once you are able to begin putting weight on it again, but that'll will be nothing compared to before your surgery. It for sure isn't easy for us folks that need our movement and exercise or our sanity!! And yes, the calf muscle atrophy is crazy! It took quite some time before mine were anywhere close to back to the same size! But hang in there, you've got this! I hope these next three weeks fly by for you. I maybe missed you saying if you have, but have you been out of the house with your knee scooter yet? I suppose you have because I think I remember you saying you had a follow-up appointment with the doc earlier this month. Man, I tell you....that first time for me getting out in the fresh air and sunshine was really emotional. I think it was the first time my wife saw how really important that is and how much that means to me. I was smiling but had tears streaming down my face. Do you know yet what the PT plan is yet? Mine was completely severed so after my no-weight-bearing period, I had to do two weeks each of 25% weight bearing, then 50%, 75%, and carefully transition back to 100%. When my wife had hers done to grind down the heel spur, it was a much shorter timeline. Between what was torn from her heel and what they cleaned up and removed, she still had about 10% of the original tendon attachment. Then to reattach what was loose, they did something like drilled three holes in the heel and cemented the loose ends into them. They also did a little reinforcement of the tendon just above the heel. But they had her at zero-weight-bearing for less time...I think 4-5 weeks and then they let her go straight to 100% as much as she could tolerate it, which wasn't very much. It took a few weeks before it she realized that she was able to stand & walk on it without any discomfort. But now she's golden! It never hurts at all. Her other foot which also has a smaller heel spur...that will need to get done either later this year or next.
Dave

@Dean: Keeping you in prayer to continue to heal and manage to get through, what I am sure is a challenging work schedule.

It was a nice day, so Brinkley and I headed out to Potter’s Park (a track of land bought in memory of a local doctor to keep protected for hiking and fishing). It was way too sloppy for doing trails, but it was a nice quiet walk. My mail lady caught us on the road out and was shocked that we hike all the way there from my home. It’s hard to burn off energy of a young lab. Until I get Viscose injections, I can’t run on the left knee. I am finally able to do some distance without major swelling. And my eye is almost back to normal. Still putting some antibiotic ointment on it and warm compresses. My vision is still blurred, but the doctor thinks that it is due to inflammation. He will recheck it in 3 1/2 weeks. Everything heading in the right direction.
