Not a whale of a lot for today's post...

Medically, I'm still doing fine. Unfortunately, there is never really a lot to say medically, so I launch into some of my activities for the day. For example, my wife and I went to see my grandson play his baseball game today. His team lost, but for me every outing is another win on the road to recovery.

So, my wife and I followed up after the game by going for ice cream and it capped a day with enough excitement for me. I really do not want to over extend myself as I have no idea what the ramifications will be. Certainly the doctors must have an inkling because the don't advise a lot of exertion at this point.

I had a large pastrami sub and some french fries for lunch and a little nausea set in. I think that my stomach has shrunk and I am presently unable to eat the quantities of food that I used to eat before. Maybe this will change, maybe it won't. But I have found, in general, that I can't eat the amount of food that I used to eat before. In truth, I am probably better off for it. Beforehand, I was certainly a candidate for Diet Workshop but far from being eligible to be a contestant on the Biggest Loser. I will be eager to see what I weigh when I go back to the clinic in a little less than 2 weeks.

Tomorrow I expect to have nothing of substance to do. But we'll see how the day turns out.

It bothers me to have to write such mundane stuff but I feel obligated to let you all know how things are going.

That is really everything for the day as I inch ever closer to the end of all of this...
