Before I left for Boston a few weeks ago, Vivian and I practiced the "mask game". Now that I'm back home, practice will make perfect!
It's great to be back home with Tom and Ivan. They did pretty well on their own, but clearly happy to have some relief in the kitchen.
From this point on, I'll have weekly visits (each Monday) to Boston for lab work and careful monitoring of the graft progress. Though I feel great, the reality check is in the very limited "indoor" visitation (immediate family only for three months). I can go outside with others, which is a great motivation to keep up daily exercise and walks! No take out food, no restaurants, no grocery shopping or entry in any other public places for several months. No fresh fruit or veggies, all meat must be well done (no steaks for a while), no fresh herbs or spices. Overall, a pretty good trade for heading towards a cure. I'm not complaining.
I'm signing off updates for awhile. There shouldn't be much news to share over the next couple of months; hopefully, just continued weekly visits and continued progress towards a full and successful graft. So once again, thanks to all for your cards, calls and good wishes. jvm
