Dave’s Recovering in Rehab Care Already
On Friday, Dave was transferred from Swedish Medical Center in Seattle to Pacific Regent over in Bellevue to start his post-op recovery one day ahead of schedule. Fortunately, he’s been recovering more quickly than expected so they decided to make the hospital bed available for someone else. Dave has a foot-long scar down his left hip and thigh but despite how it might look, he says he’s actually already feeling a whole lot better than he has for years. Dave hasn’t been able to go online yet from bedside but he sends his regards to all of his family and friends who have sent their warm wishes for a speedy recovery.
I’ve posted a slideshow of the surgery itself directly on his website CLICK HERE. (WARNING: Not for the squeamish – his doctor told him that his arm’s were sore the day after the surgery from having to work so hard at pulling the original bone out of his leg!) It’s still a work in progress and we’ll be adding comments to some of the pictures shortly.
