    thanks
    I'm now at the rehab facility. Before I left the hospital we finally saw a lymphedema specialist who worked some real magic. Not out of the tunnel, but it seems there may be some light ahead.

    Today I got out of bed, something I have not done since January 15th, and even managed to get back in bed from the wheelchair with a minimum of drama.

    Little steps
    Little steps go a long way. One day at a time.
    Always good to be Vertical instead of horizontal.
    Hope to hear more good news as you go along,
