Saturday am: I woke up to a taller wife!

Bet you men can't top that one!

When I helped Deb up this morning, she was taller! Now, neither one of us are tall compared to most folks, so I 'm speaking in a relative manner to each other.

Last night there were three more spine repairs which basically consists of expanding the crushed vertabrae back towards their original size and shape, then filling in the gaps with a special cement. So, Deb really did regain some of her lost height and is taller this morning than she was yesterday morning.

When we got back to the room, the mailman had been here and left a small package and some cards which brightened Deb's face as she heard from some of you. (address here posted in CONTACT INFO on the right hand column of this blog.

This morning Deb dressed and we made our first joint appearance in the little breakfast room at the hotel. She picked at a few items, them came back to the room to rest. She will probably rest most of the day. She really had a workout yesterday!

She said that during the surgery she felt everything that the Dr did.

Trey called yesterday and said they were at home adapting to new family life with a baby.We hope to Skype today and see Evelyn in action.

Blessings all!
