3 Months today!

It has been 3 months today, exactly.  Okay, maybe it has been 13 weeks if you count the days:-)  I feel great.  I have had 2 biopsies since I have been home and both have been 0R.  Very exciting since I had 2 straight 1Rs before I came home.  The trip through LAX with my breathing mask on, hauling a guitar and 4 bags is a distant memory.  People told me heading into my procedure that at 90 days they really started to feel good.  I can confirm that is the case.  This past week I found myself thinking I really do feel better.  I have been running 3-3.5 miles 2 times a week and doing the elliptical for 45 minutes on the other days.  Cardiac rehab was completed after 1 visit and some debate, no need I was told.  Work has been good, but exceedingly busy.  I find a get pretty tired after a full day, sometimes I step back and remind myself that it has only been 12 weeks.

Random thought of the day. Pay attention next time you go to a restaurant or a cafeteria.  Look at the food preparers and notice the gloves they wear.  I asked someone to change them this week and I got a very nasty look and the person said, "I have to wear them, it is a cleanliness rule."  My question is this......what good do the gloves do for me and the cleanliness of my food if the person touches every thing in the kitchen with those gloves on before my food.  Does it do anything other than keep their hands clean?  You think about these things when every little thing could kill you.  Just saying...............
