Thanks everyone for your thoughts, prayers, visits, emails, and gifts. I am blessed to have such caring friends.

I was able to use a walker to go about 8 feet today, which was the first time I've been vertical since Saturday. Looks like I'll be able to get out of the hospital on Wednesday or Thursday if all goes well.

In the meantime, now that I'm not so loopy on drugs, I'm enjoyimg watching the Tour.

Hi Mark...my thoughts and prayers have also been with you & Mike...sounds like you are in good hands...hope to see you on the road soon.
