To all of you who sent cards and e-mails. I am six weeks out of surgery and walking well. Really working on the physical therapy. Went to work today and made it five hours before I needed to rest. I will continue to work on exercise and endurance. I can only praise my doctor, my orthopedist and my physical therapist as well as the support groups and my immediate and extended family. Look for me at the National! Mary ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2007.
