Hello to all my antenna friends. I've just now returned home after nine weeks in the hospital following major
spinal surgery. The surgery was successful, but I contracted hideous intestinal infection C Diff, or colitis,
in the hospital. Forty nine days were required to clear the infection, after which I could begin physical
therapy. I'm still recuperating very slowly, learning to regain my balance and walk again. Have you ever
wondered what it would feel like to stand up, but needing to hang onto something stationary to avoid falling
down? And have you ever wondered what it would feel like to stand up, but unable to move a foot to start
walking? I'm still learning how to walk, with the aid of both a walker and a cane. Long and tough, but I'm
making it.
Hope to join you great guys again occasionally as I continue to recover.
73 to All,
Walt, W2DU
A heartfelt thank you to all who responded to my hospital note. I really appreciate all your kind words of
wisdom and encouragement. As for helping keep the truth in rraa, I take that comment as a real compliment,
indeed.
B 'Cin ya soon,
Walt
Welcome back.
