He tried to call me yesterday.  I was playing in a golf tournament and didn’t see until this morning.

Prayers for a speedy recovery Gil!

Greetings all and thank you so much for your prayers, kind words, and support.

I just now got home from the hospital.... HOORAH..!!!

I was sent home with an oxygen bottle and a prescription for blood thinners.

Then the oxygen guy came by and dropped off a concentrator and 3 portable bottles. (I have got to get beyond this)

I am supposed to use oxygen when moving. Should be fine without it at rest but will monitor my absorption level to be sure.

Thanks for letting us know how you are doing and that you are now home ....... WELCOME HOME GIL!

Take it easy Gil, and don't try to do anything that will challenge your recovery!!

That said, please do all that you can comfortably do and that the doctors will allow for you to do, so that you can build yourself back up as best as possible as soon as possible!!!
