Tracy Here
Well I'm finally out of the hospital, I went to see Cindy last night but she was on the phone. I am sooooooo thirsty and am really looking forward to being able to sip water tomorrow, not really hungry just thirsty. I talked to Mike (Cindy's Husband) and today Cindy is very thirsty and has a couple of days to go for her first drink. Lisa's surgery was only a couple of hours so she must have flown through.
Well I'm finally on the loosing side, coughing up and boy that hurts but it is normal, also doing my breathing exercise as much as possible. I went for a walk down to the park and back this evening and that went good. The weather is so great down here I wish Houston was like this.
All the people down here are so nice also.

It's so good to hear from you! I keep checking the board for any news of y'all....(OK, I'm from Texas too, can ya tell????) Are you staying there till al the staples come out or just a few day? When I have my surgery, I plan to stay till all the staples are out and I'm ready to get on with life. Take care,
Hey Tracy!
I know what you will be up doing at 3:30 am...drinking some cold water! That's what I did. It took me a whole day to drink 20 ounces. But, what I wanted to tell you is be prepared for water to taste yucky for a couple days. I had a real gross taste in my mouth and ended up watering down a Propel water. Jody floated a tea bag in her water bottle to help with the taste in her mouth. Congrats on the beginning of your new life!
