Day 3: Rescheduling Shoulder Surgery

Surgery on my right shoulder has been scheduled for Friday followed by 2 days of recovery before having surgery on my left shoulder on Monday. I will be staying here through then and then will be transferred to UCSF for the brain surgery, probably late next week but they're still working on getting that scheduled. 

Beyond the severe shoulder discomfort, I am doing well and have a great group of family, friends and medical staff taking care of me. Due to my shoulders I can't do anything, including eating and drinking, without help. 

In time all of this will heal and I'll be back to normal (I hope). 

I have read every comment and your generosity has been overwhelming. I deeply appreciate each and every one of you and have been trying my best to reply to as many messages as possible.
