Thank you Terry and Jo. My wife enjoyed visiting with you and I can't tell you how much I appreciate you two.
God bless you both.
Well they went in Monday morning and took out the entire right lung. Hope that get's it all and might not have to do Chemo. If not, nothing else to take...Ha.
Was laughing at my nurse, when she brought me a walker and said I needed to make a lap around my floor to start. I was insulted, but after a few hallways it hit me. My life has changed. Not sure I can adopt the new me without seeing some major leaps forward.

I'm having flashbacks! Your surgery sounds worse than a colon removal though. Keep up the PT and walk as much as you can and you will adjust the the new lack of lung capacity. I know a guy who had the same thing and he has no problems breathing today.
