Almost Gone

well...been awhile since i've posted.I was in such a drugged fog,Joan had to fill in for me. I'M BACK! It's been slow progress in terms of PT.I can't move my leg on my own while in bed,but using a walker,I can..sorta move it..but still,it's progress. We've had to stay 2 more days here than necessary because of "communications breakdown" (a zep fav),but hopefully,today's the day...or I"m gonna walk home. I got to see myself for the first time yesterday,as it was the first trip into our bathroom for a shampoo,sponge bath,and a look into the giant mirror...freaked! Wildman from the woods of Quantico.I'm ready for halloween. My leg scar is healing nicely,although a bit shocked at the size of the femur they removed...should be fun at airports.The phone calls and Emails have been a true Godsend..There have been soooo many.thankyou everyone I have never felt so much love.I love you all so much. As far as what lies ahead,I am still in search mode,but have a very strong pull towards Mr Bill's route...Mexico.I think the degree at which I am exposed might preclude the NIH route.If I do go to Mexico,it will be very soon.I can't wait much longer.Today we're hopeful to be transported to Health South Rehab in Salisbury,maybe there for 5-7 days,then....Mexico.More later,Rick
