06/12/2007: "Made it!"
Rock was awake, alert and cracking jokes last night! He's in a big neck brace and can barely move, but at that point there wasn't much pain, which is great. Through all this he has never lost his sense of humor, which has made it easier for all of us - he's already giving the nurses a hard time. I forgot his iPod headphones and he was threatening to sneak into the room next door and "steal some from the old lady".

So - I think you know the "Secret". If not, I am getting you a copy to listen to while you are exercising (chasing that old lady next door).

EXCELLENT NEWS! A sense of humor is a great sign. Here is a really cool quote on it:
"Humor is the great thing, the saving thing. The minute it crops up, all our irritation and resentments slip away, and a sunny spirit takes their place." ~Mark Twain
Keep the spirits high! There are SO many prayers, positive thoughts and hope coming your way!

A big sigh of relief! Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you. Power of prayer and positive thinking, plus a good surgeon and a determined patient, scores one fore the good side. Here's to a smooth and speedy recovery! I am so happy for you both. Don't hesitate to ask, if you need anything.
