Doing the surgery thing Tuesday, the 28th, if all the items come together. One day in the hospital... 8-10 days of recovery at home. A nurse will come once a day to change my bandages, and no shower for recovery... just "bird baths", to prevent getting the region wet vs infection)

From the sound of it, I'll be in much better condition, and the nerve damage in my leg should be alleviated. I'm going to be chilling at home for Halloween this year, with the Newtster.. works for me. :)

I'm *very* positive and comfortable with the doctor and crew... even though I had to wait an extra three hours because he was called to do some emergency work during my visit-span. Apparently he's quite in demand, and very talented.

Well, after that, I had a bit of a windfall... we're getting some techs to take over some call time, just in time for my recovery, and they'll be staying so I will only go on call 1 week a month. Looks like I can't avoid being the boss of someone, no matter where I go to work. Somehow, I'm scheduled to be a sub-chief. I'll have three techs, and a couple of volunteers, too.

Scotto, I'm worried!
I really do hope someone will be able to come and do all sorts of helping for you.

Can you promise if you are alone in the house, that you won't try to be all tough and push yourself, until someone can come help later??

oh yeah, I'll have a cell phone and plenty of patience.

Also, a wireless network with the laptop!

*hugs* I'll be sure to send good thoughts your way on the 28th, then. And if I can do anything to help from several thousand miles away, let me know!

I hope you can at least somewhat enjoy the recovery time with Cute Newt. =)
