I still cannot believe it has almost been a week. Mark's recovery is still amazing and hard to believe it has gone so well. Mark is still sore around his incision (which is a good 8-10 inches long), which makes it difficult to get up and down from chairs/cars.
The medicine regime is not too bad. Mark has ~25 pills to take each morning (which eventually taper off over the next few months) and only about ~15 at night. We had our first scare yesterday morning because Mark had a rash over his chest and back. Mayo is amazing though and we called in and his doctor were able to tell us that it is a reaction to one of the many meds he takes and to just take some benedryl. It is rather comforting that they provide this 24 hour hotline for all the questions we may have during his recovery.
Mark and I are so blessed this new year! We are also so grateful for the kind heart of Tori who did not think twice about giving the gift of life.
Such a nice message you put MyLife. We are so happy for you and Mark.
