Glad you checked back in ICE. Thanks for the report. Sounds like you are on the right path to recovery. Keep it up!

Under 2 months since surgery and returned to work this Monday to an office buried in balloons, streamers and confetti. They got me good!

I am working half days till I know I can take a whole day. Still a bit of back pain and had an infection scare last week at my feeding tube site. Got that under control. I am eating most all my calories via mouth, but like the tube for meds since I still toss cookies if I have a coughing fit.

So good to be returning to work. There is only so much tv watching I can take.

Life is good!

I think it's amazing that you are back to work already.  That's got to be the best therapy for an ornery old cuss -- just getting back into the thick of things.  When you said you came down with cancer, I raised started getting serious about exercising after dinner & I even raise up the head of our bed, since I sometimes get what you had.  Trying not to eat so late also.  It's nothing short of a miracle that you're this far along with your recovery & getting back to good health.  Good luck at work.  Those short shifts sound just perfect to me!

Thanks Kevin.

Yeah, my oncologist and my primary care physician were both surprised I wanted to go back so soon. Can't justify trying a bit of hunting this fall if I don't get to work.

Hunting... I knew there was a motive.  That's the best therapy!

Keep going Ice!  It's good to hear you are getting better every day.

You are still in our daily prayers.  Stay positive.  Happy things are going good for you. Tell the wife and kids, hello for us.

I don't know you Ice, but I am so very personally happy for you as this very cancer touched my family about 5 years ago and took my dad. I love hearing about you recovery because I had all the confidence in the world my dad would come out the other side as I watched him go into surgery. I thought he was going to make it and he was all thumbs up. He was to old and week I guess. It really does mean a lot to me to know that this cancer is survivable because I think it is hereditary in my family from both my moms side and dads side. And that kind of scares my kids because we all have heartburn issues. So it just seems we will all have a turn in time. And the most important thing to know is you are back up and working and from what I can tell pretty much living a normal life again. I have a brother who needs to know that. He really has no understanding. That is my dimwit bro who doesn't like to hunt. I'm going to slam him every chance I get.  

Wonderful Ice!
