SIX WEEKS POST TRANSPLANT 9/5/08
I am new to this blogging thing, so bear with me as I learn. I just thought it would be nice to update people in a more up to date method other than my rotary phone. Well, it has been six weeks since my transplant and my recovery is going very well. I have had some small procedures done as an out patient, but no admissions to the hospital. I started pulmonary rehab last week, and even though I am out of shape, I am looking forward to getting into shape. I am not able to drive yet, but am very fortunate that my wife can take time off from work to take me to the clinics and to rehab (which is usually 2-3 times per week). The transplant center at The Heart and Lung Institute at St. Joseph's is very wonderful at working around my wife's work schedule with my appointments. If I can figure out how to add photos, I have one of my surgical area that just amazes me. Well, More later. Thank you everyone for your prayers, words of encouragement. They have all meant so much to me.

Marty/Monica,
Nancy and I have known the both of you for such a short time, but we find it's amazing how what is a very serious medical situation can bring strangers together for life. We don't know exactly where this new life will take us, but it certainly has given us a new outlook on what is important in life. Having gone through the stages of recovery as you are, I can tell you that it only gets better. Keep up what you are doing. Monica, God bless you for being there as a caregiver. Your love and support only supplements greatly what our wonderful transplant team, and support crew have done. Love, Steve & Nancy
