First, the good news.

We are now ensconced in a Redwood City home owned by one of Meda’s sisters. We arrived here around 2 pm Sunday.

It’s a nice house, hidden on a flag lot down a long driveway. Certainly a very nice place to recuperate for a few weeks.

And I do appear to be bouncing back from the surgery. I’m off pain meds except Tylenol without a problem. I walked the long driveway out to the street this morning, at least a few hundred feet each way. Will repeat later this afternoon.

The discharge from the drain that is still inserted at the surgery site has nearly stopped.

And I’m awake and upright for much more of the day, a continuing process.
