Pneumonia throws Kink in Surgery
Oh, now, its not as bad as its sounds----especially after this morning's x-rays showed major improvement, but what a drag!  Last week I took a nasty cough to my doctor and found I had pneumonia in my right lung, thus there was obviously no ankle surgery today. Just a visit back to my doc to see if the antibiotics had begun to fight the war.  Good report.  X-Rays looked remarkably better and now the surgery date is April 17th.  A real drag to have another long month of waiting before my ankle can be corrected..  Been blue as Bessie Smith all this past week, but knowing I am on the mend cheered me up.  Still have to take it easy but I'm told I can get back to swimming in a week. They obviously caught this virus early and hit it with all the torpedoes.  Another month of waiting for surgery is A REAL drag but the positive report from my doctor has cheered me up enough to pop out a blog...

Good. All the positive thoughts, well wishes and prayers and good Karma must have worked.

Don't rush it. The last thing you need is to be sick and immobile.
