Good afternoon, AU family!
I have so much good news to report regarding Wayne's recovery from surgery last week!
Today was a HUGE day! Physical therapy had him doing chair pushups (dips), etc. Then came Speech therapy & he was able to put the one-way valve on his trach & surprised the therapist with the strength of his voice! He got his reward - that much hoped-for cup of ice chips! (He has had nothing by mouth since last Wednesday).
Cheeky monkey! He had asked for some water & a swab to rinse his mouth out... As I turned my back to fetch something else, I caught motion out of the corner of my eye... the sly bugger had taken a sip from the cup!
He will officially start liquids tomorrow, but they want to be sure he's not leaking into any tissues anywhere from the mouth.
He is cleared to get a wheelchair, even with all the IV pole, He's very keen to get rolling since I told him it would reduce the swelling in his arms & hands...

ALL GLORY TO OUR HEAVENLY FATHER!!!
Auntie M, Dennis1776 has been practically holding my hand since surgery day. We had everything planned out for the kids to be here in NOLA vacationing during the surgery, but then it was pushed back a week... But that's OK because Dr. Hasney was here to do his Stage 1 of the surgery himself, freshly back from vacation. Still, I was all my byself in the big city & he knew it & held my hand through the 10 LONG hours of surgery. Bless his darling wife for sharing her husband with me!
Wayne had 3 surgical teams - Dr. Hasney removed the old jaw bone (and told me later he was able to take 30% less than he had thought because the bone was still healthy on the right side)! I'm claiming that as part of the healing God began BEFORE the surgery!
@QakeLady told me last Wednesday that she & her mom had prayed he got out of surgery early & so it came to pass!
Dr. Hanson spoke with me at 6pm to tell me it went great & finished over 45 min. early..

You are so right, Auntie! That couple are 24k gold to me. I consider them FAMILY by now!
How generous is that? If you're a 9-year survivor/thriver after a similar surgery, to offer to help someone going through their own surgical dramas?
On top of that, in Dennis1776 & his wife, I have discovered we have many like interests. We will be sharing garden seed before long & I am going to give him the recipe to preserve eggs at room temp up to a year!
----
Wayne was moved out of ICU a day EARLY, as @QakeLady had told me. The first day of step-down care was a bit hard. Coughing up stuff through the trach & needing suction a lot... Lots of pain when moving from bed to chair & back, etc.
Today is a new story! Physical therapy had him doing chair pushups (dips) & were very pleased. Speech therapy had him talking using the 1-way valve & then rewarded him with a cup of ICE! I was watching his face as he had his first chip... he was in HEAVEN! He was NPO since Wednesday...

I feel the same way, Dennis!
It's like we're getting a preview of life in 5D & it feels wonderful to me!
Wayne & I live practically like hermits because we like to mind our own business. When we want to socialize, we invite folks over for a crawfish boil or a BBQ.
My true friends I can count on one hand; happily, I don't have many fingers left these days, because you & N. got my 4th finger!
I love you guys so much. I've never before experienced people I didn't even know caring about me!
I think if we all keep our vibes high & happy, we will bring in the 5D earlier!
You guys have become family to us, too!

Dennis1776 and I have also discovered similar interests and have found that we have lots in common. We both play musical instruments, and have a similar music background and taste in music.
We bounce ideas off of each other relating to natural healing remedies. I've studied health, natural healing, nutrition, etc for nearly 23 years. I've not seen a "doctor" in all those years, and am the healthiest one I know.
I shared my 101-year-young grandmother's dill pickle recipe with him. Hers are the best on the planet!
It's no accident or coincidence that we are all coming together at this time. Though we have not all met in person, we are all family here on a mission from God!
God Bless you and Wayne! Still praying without ceasing for his complete and speedy recovery! 🙏🙏🙏

You are so right, Auntie M!
Just think - THIS is what 5D living is like - good people coming together, regardless of what else is going on.
I don't believe in coincidence or accidents. Grandfather put Mr. Smiley in my path back in June for a very good reason. We didn't even have the diagnosis yet when we met. And BOTH of us knew it was no accident because God was the subject matter.

But wait! There's more!
Dr. Hasney was in last night, very pleased with his progress, & said Wednesday he will have liquids & applesauce & jello (which he hates)... Then he said, "once we get him eating well, we'll get that trach out & he can go home." The implication being that this could happen as soon as this coming weekend!
Dr. Hasney is a bit like Q; he never gives the 40,000 ft view, but only dispenses drips of info, LOL. I have to ask direct questions and at first, he was disturbed that I knew what questions to ask, LOL.
The residents have been pretty good, too, but I dislike the way they throw trash all over the place & leave it in the bed, the swine! That's an insult to pigs, because our pigs were much neater.
Well, I know how to "innocently" take them down a peg or 2... It's necessary to prevent them from overinflating their egos, LOL. They really don't know how to take me... and I refuse to bow & scrape... holding them accountable for...

not getting the correct boot & it taking 3 days for them to get it figured out & ordered. The tech delivered right away. I knew what the doc meant, but the team of residents did not, so I had to draw a danged picture for them... and then they had to run back to Dr. Hasney to be sure... (but I bet they didn't because they wouldn't want him to know that they didn't know what they were doing).
I knew because I had required one for my 12 leg fractures back in the day, LOL.
So he's really working hard to help himself get stronger & get the heck outta here so he can have a decent night's sleep without beepers, buzzers & the doppler, which has a constant heartbeat sound...
He's "pregnant" with a "baby bone" in his mouth & the Doppler is making sure the grafted artery & vein remain patent. That's the big deal, because if the blood flow fails, the whole graft fails.
I've had to argue with nurses that Dr. H wants a HANDHELD Doppler scan every 2 hours, plus visual check, regardless
