BIRD UPDATE

I sent an email to Bird's daughter this morning and got the following progress report from his daughter, Holly:


""He did GREAT! The surgery went very well and he was in a little
discomfort, but not any true pain yesterday. I had to come to work
today so I haven't seen or talked to him yet, but will be there tonight.
He will be in the hospital until Thursday and then we will get him home."

:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

I was sure everyone would want to know this good news.

Thanks SO MUCH for the news.
Please send back my best wishes & everyone else's too I'm sure.

Won't be long before he's back here saying "nothing to it, wish I'd done it sooner"
and Ya know I'll jump on him with "told Ya so" (-:

I just got off the phone with Bird in his hospital room. They've taken all his IVs, etc. off and he is up walking with a walker. As a matter of fact, yesterday, they told him not to walk without someone to help him, but today they told him he could walk up and down the hallway by himself if he is careful. He's only taking oral pain medicine as required and is looking forward to getting home tomorrow. I think I can safely say that so far it looks like Bird is doing exceptionally well.:thumbsup:

I told him how everyone was asking about him and sending good wishes his way. He said he sure appreciated everyone thinking about him and pulling for him.

Oh yes... He said that the hospital was as good or better than they had told him. The food is great, his room is private, and everyone is caring and wants to help. He's very pleased with this hospital.

Again, Good news Jim. Thanks for keeping us up to date. It sounds as if Bird will be back with us on the forum shortly.

Sounds like that he lucked out.The food was just short of terrible the two times I was in hospital in the last year and that was two different hospitals. The food while I was in in-patient physical therapy was quite good however.

I will PM him after he has been home a while.

:laughing: He did tell me that he may have to spend two days catchin' up on just reading emails when he gets home. If I were a betting man, my money would be on his posting here before today is over.

Jim,

Thanks for the Bird Update. :thumbsup:

A friend of ours was in the hospital a few weeks ago and he liked the food. We did not taste the dinner but we wanted too. I sure looked and smelled good. :laughing:

Later,
