FROM YOUR E-MAIL YOU SOUND VERY STRONG FOR JUST HAVING THE SURGERY MAY 15. TAKE IT EAST AND DON'T RUSH YOUR RECOVERY AND YOU WILL BE SURPRISED HOW FAST YOU WILL RECOVER. I THINK IT IS WONDERFUL THAT UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL NOW HAS A STAFF AND THE EQUIPMENT TO PERFORM THE TP/ICT. WHEN I HAD MY SURGERY IN 2000 UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL WAS JUST BEGINNING. I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU BERT. SHIRLEY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 26, 2003 Report Share Posted May 26, 2003 Bert, What great news to hear that you are home and recovering so well from your transplant. It looks like you're healing well and quickly. I hope your full recovery goes as well as it has been thus far....just remember to take it easy and take advantage of any chances you have to rest properly. It's good to have you back online!
