Its great to see you made it so well through this surgery that you arranged so quickly. I know it means a lot that you did this knowing everything you do and it very important to me to see you do so well and posing with Dr. Baumbach so shortly after this mayor surgery. I wish you the best and I am following very closely, trust me, I have a feeling I will be in that same room one of these days and I will remember your recovery and hope I can even get close to doing so well.
I hope we will learn in the future regarding your thoughts as to whether you waited too long for this or if the timing was appropriate all things considered. It seems you were prepared to go into action when time is right and I am sure yours was as good as it could have been. And the pizza, I can make you a bet that I could not do that 1 day after a mayor neck surgery, yes you must have a iron stomach! You got a great support crew here!

OMG, Mark,
Pizza. That is a picture that most of us won't get out of our minds for a while. I hope it was yummy. You do seem to have turned the corner. FYI, I have tinnitus. Developed it last year, 2007? Result of losing some of my hearing in both ears (who knows why). I kind of just decided to block it out and usually that works. It is still there but more like white noise. Did you finish the pizza off with some beer? Follow your advice, and don't do too much too soon. Sounds like a cool hospital. Kim

Diane and I are back at the hotel. There is a cool breeze blowing across the balcony and the setting sun has the golden statue in the stadtplatz glowing so beautifully. They took such great care at Saint Elisabeth, but it's great to be here. They now have adjustable beds in all the rooms at the Theresientor. Diane is out getting some groceries. I'm sneaking in a few minutes to get my films up.
   T1-2 gets lost in my shoulders in the lateral view. I'll see if we can bring that back out.

nice photo
Mark,
You and Diane look really good and you look even straighter/taller which I guess is because you have to hold your neck sort of rigid/the collar and such. Beautiful background setting which I hope one day I might get to see first hand. The films look good too~ much better than before the surgery! Looking forward to hearing/reading more whenever you're able to post at that length (future). How're the symptoms? take care~
