    Lainy, you don’t know real pain until you hear my dear wife sing. The pets put their paws over their ears.

    Time to say ‘yes to drugs” for another night of uninterrupted sleep. No real pain, though.

    Kim or Percy here can help with interpretation. Sounds like general improvement with nothing getting worse. I would overnight the disc to Dr Kato.

    Well, just got back to NJ Sat from having a small adeno carcenoma removed Wed afternoon from my rt lung at NY Presbyterian. Dr Josh Sonett was the surgeon and he’s pretty sure he got it all. Now’s just to wait for the final path report. I’m hoping for a new lung primary and no cc mets. We’ll know in a week to 10 days. Surgery was totally unremarkable and recovery a piece of cake. Just some swelling and soreness at the incision site and the garden hose drain hole.

    Just another bump in the cancer road!

    Heading home to MD in a few hours.

    Grover, the full feeling after eating a small amount is completely normal, and will persist for a month or so. I remember the same feeling. Truth is, your stomach is probably smaller now than it used to be. Even now, after almost 3 years, I have to resist eating too fast and/or too much … not a big deal and you will adjust pretty quickly. Glad you’re on your way home so soon. Just don’t overdo in the first few weeks.

    Glad everything worked out without issues. Take care, my friend.

    Nice to hear from you, Grover, even if spelling (typing??) isn’t your forte today. You’ll be feeling pretty normal before you know it! You must be progressing well to be in a regular room.

    Suzanne, all that plumbing stuff will start to disappear soon. That’s just a detail and necessary for the time being, gross as it appears. Give him our regards, and being a little grouchy is just fine. Give him our regards. Barring any complications, sounds like he will be heading home next week. Thanks for the great report.
