Six weeks later

Aug 3 marks six weeks post op for me. This is the length of time that the discharge instructions advise to avoid strenuous activity.
Summer in Public Gardens

I enjoyed a walk in the Halifax Public Gardens yesterday. I am not quite ready to lift weights or paddle my kayak but my strength is returning and I feel very well. Farris and I have been able to visit with the family including some very satisfying time with our young grandsons Reid (5 yrs), and Locklin (20 months).

As I shared in my last update, the pathology report after the surgery was very good. There was no cancer found in the tissues examined. A CT Scan will be scheduled for me in December to have another look for cancer cells. I am thankful for all the excellent work and care from the health care professionals on my case since December 2019. I send special thanks to all the people who supported me in their thoughts and prayers. I now hope to enjoy some summer activity with friends and family while remaining observant of Covid-19 precautions.
