I hope the inside and the care there are equally impressive.

And you must be feeling at least a little better if you are back in action with your beloved camera.

The care here is second to none. And everyone knows how to motivate you to your best effort!

My feelings about my status vary! Sometimes I'm optimistic, sometimes less so. I am getting stronger for sure.

These photos were taken with my ancient iPhoto11. I did a bit of post-processing of course.

Well, to be honest, I was out with my occupational therapist to walk around the patio and get some real exercise!

But of course I had my iPhone and I couldn't resist taking a few photos. These buildings surround the medical building where I'm getting my rehab. The last photo shows the entrance to our facility.

I AM recovering, albeit very slowly. But being able to get these photos really gave me a personal boost.

I miss all of you too.

Thank you for sending us here a few photos! I’m so glad you’re back with your camera! Must mean you’re feeling more like yourself??

This is a beautiful area and I was quite glad to walk outside and really see it.

All these photos were taken with my iPhone 11. Minor post-processing.

Can't really say that I'm feeling more like myself, however. My balance, my ability to swallow super well, and my strength need work. I'm confident that I will accomplish these, and more, but it's going to take a lot of time and energy.

All of these were taken with my iPhone 11. I always have that with me and this surgery and recovery didn't change that!

And at least it’s not named after you know who. 🙄

Hope you’re healing and getting stronger everyday CP. ❤️‍🩹

It sure isn't named after that creature! Bleah.

I am healing and getting stronger. But this will not be a quick recovery. We shall see.
