Hello All!

[Solly Mack]

Thank you so much for your messages and photos!

I'm home now. I'm using a feeding tube. I had loss too much weight. I was in the danger zone for my body. I just wasn't thriving as well as the doctors hoped I would.

I'm now on a schedule of medicines and food that seems to be working. I'm up more and moving about more. I'm using a cane to get around but soon enough I'll be able to put it away.

I tire easily and I still sleep a lot.

So far - the cancer didn't spread and I am in remission. I have one more test - the definitive one - next month. Good news as it goes. I was happy.

And (((((((((((((HUGS)))))))) to you all!!

Not up to taking photos yet but I keep eyeing my camera.

Love you all!!!

3. I'm so glad you're feeling better, Solly.

You gave us all a scare. I don't really pray, but I'm sending you my best wishes for a speedy and complete recovery.

4. So glad to see you back, Solly Mack

Keep that camera close. One day it will just jump into your hand and beg to be used.

9. Thanks, NV Whino.

It's good to feel better. I cleaned the camera yesterday. It took 2 hours (I needed to rest) but I got it done.

and at home! That's great!

Very glad you're being fed properly. I know, from family experience, how important that is.

Here's one for you, taken (from friend's car) yesterday:

10. That's gorgeous elleng!

Thank you!

One of my biggest issues was the nausea....couldn't keep anything down. Once they got that solved (weird little glitch in my throat) the rest was easy.

15. Excellent.

I hope the radiation hasn't affected your salivary glands too much.

7. Oh, Solly Mack! So glad to hear from you.

Sleep as much as you want.

I used a cane for 8 months before I had my hip replacement 7 years ago. Just use it!

Come chat with us when you feel like it.

We're here and we're all holding good thoughts for you to pick up that camera
when you're ready and show us the beauty that you see.

Hugs to you!

[Solly Mack]

12. Thanks, mnhtnbb!

I do like the cane. Comes in handy.

13. We LOVE you

And MISS you-- can't wait for your lizards, critters, birds, and your arty pictures. Now maybe you can get a bit of sunshine therapy and snap some photos in your wonderful yard.

Love hearing from you.

16. Thanks Celebration!

14. It is so good to see your name on a thread!!!

Glad you are feeling better and hope you improve more each day. It is hard to eat when you feel miserable and treatments still tend to make a person feel miserable even as they try to counter that part. Good news on the cancer and crossing fingers the next test is clean and cancer free.

[Solly Mack]

17. Thanks, CC!

You rest, and build yourself up, and I'm happy you are getting good nutrients through your feeding tube. You'll know when it's time to take photos when you feel strong and ready...we'll be here cheering you on. It's just so nice, you and ohheckyeah checking in...

And such good news about it being in remission!

I'm not sure if we've met before but I have been a DU member since 2001... I've just been gone for...years? Went through quite a rough patch but things are getting better... I intend to stick around for awhile and will look forward to seeing your posts!

So I read that you like lizards? Well here's a lizard for you...



Now be sure to continue to heal and get rested up! Like this fella...
