He had an appointment at his neurologist’s office but not with the neurologist. He was seeing the doctor who handles his VNS (vagal nerve stimulator). They were checking the battery and other information that it holds. He had it surgically…
As you may recall we all got covid after our grandbaby (the 2nd one) was born. For the most part we have recovered, well it seems that way. Still wearing a mask when we go somewhere though.

I didn’t think I’d hit anything close considering this past few weeks since the hurricane have been hard to not eat things you “shouldn’t”. Cool! Just had to share a bit of good news. In other news, I am so tired. Just want to sleep. Good night 😏
Baby steps. I’m home from the hospital and making progress. When I was first rolled out of the OR I remember them covering my shoulders with lots of ice packs. It was to ease the swelling in my shoulders. They had to pull my arms and shoulders down and back so they could get to my neck the way they needed. My shoulders hurt like a mf’r when I started waking up. They were swollen…
