5. Wonderful news and thanks for sharing it with us ...

and we all hope the next 48 hours go by without any complications.

On another note about your other thread on care at home. Have you or your wife set up a caringbridge or carepages site where you can post updates to share with family or friends? By just posting what is ahead and what needs to be done sometimes offers come from people you might not have thought of asking.

It can be a 'gentle' way of asking for help from a variety of people, you might be surprised at the acquaintances or more distant family members that could step up to help. It only takes one or two people to make a difference and worth a shot.

Best wishes for a full recovery
