Hey One Crutch,

Good to hear you are home. I remember when I was in hospital for week and unable to get outside, the first walk outside in fresh air was magnificent... everything looked so much nicer.

Pray all goes well and you heal up just fine.

Give a hug to your little one.

Tim

Neil. that is awsome!!!!!!!!!!!! Everything, from you new hip to your new outlook. I pray everyone here could experience that uforia just once a month, what a difference it would make. I can't wait to see how you feel once you start the embrel. I'm just so thrilled for you.

Hi Neil, I'm so happy for you too!

Thank goodness that chest infection is under control and you are back home and enjoying a new lease on life. Congrats! Take it easy though and try to do as the doctors order while you're healing, even if you are feeling like leaping for joy!

I hope the Enbrel will prove to have you feeling even better.
Cheers!

Its great isn't it.

Glad to read you are out and moving around on one crutch alreay. You've got the perfect attitude. I loved every second of being out of the hospital and new what a great second opportunity to walk without pain the hip surgery was. Enjoy it. It is great if you think about it.

Your daughter must love it too, having you there walking along while she flies by on her scooter. Great stuff.

Hello Neil

So glad you are home, best place to be isn't it?

Hope you continue to feel better and better as you regain your strength.

Enjoy your new found freedom and enjoy the joys of parenthood. Hug your daughter and hug that great big tree if you want to as well.

Glad to hear you are home now, Neil. And recovering well, too! I'm so happy for you and your family.
