Just a quick note to say Good Morning! Heading to my water aerobics class shortly sporting a new pattern of Kinesio tape. This time I have it running from armpit to armpit (or more technical term would be axilla to axilla). Eddy said it isn't as body art looking as the stuff I had running up my arm. Looking forward to getting colored tape instead of the medical looking beige stuff.
Sending you healing thoughts and positive energy from Santa Cruz! Should be crazy with traffic here today since the weather is going to be hot and there are a ton of events going on around the area.
Time to find my towel and suit!

bummer -- but just temporary
Eric, your post last week was tremendous!
As it turns out, you were having surgery when I was giving a talk to a Bible study group and I know most of them kept you in their prayers; I was scheduled to talk to them again last Monday and happily shared not only the good news of the success of the surgery, but your marvelous letter.
I was sorry to learn of this setback to beginning rehab, but coming to understand you better from that letter, I'm sure this will be just a temporary setback for you.

Thinking of you
Hi Eric,
Hope you are having a good day today. I have been sending you a lot of good thoughts and quick little prayers so you can heal up quickly and get started with rehab soon.
It was so encouraging to see your post. You are unbelievably upbeat and practical and I really respect and admire your attitude and determination. And you have an amazing amount of friends and family surrounding you with all our positive energy.
I do have some news to tell you but I will wait until I come visit. :)
Can't wait to see you. Take care,
Connie

What a trip!
Tonight I took Susan and the girls to see the Dead......It was great. Marin wants to play Guitar and Ayden just loved the entire scene. Susan was right at home and just happy to treat the girls to a little of her past.
Halfway through the show I got a text from a number I recognized and it was Shahin. He was there and we connected for a drink. Wow, it was great. I was happy to meet up as we hadn't seen him since being up at the hospital the day of your big surgery.
It was great to see him in good spirits and even better to know that you are in good hands. We are all lucky to carry our good friends with us and Shahin is pretty damn special!
Hope to see you soon......We keep you in our thoughts moment by moment......
Justin, Susan, Ayden, and Marin

Just checking in...
Whazzup!! So, what's the latest scoop? Are you back in Silicon Valley yet? You're going to need a revolving door and a ticket machine outside your room with all the visitors you're going to have coming to see you. The nurses are going to think you're a celebrity or something. :o) Be prepared for them to ask for your autograph, and take advantage every chance you get!! HEE!
I am confident that you're feeling better every day that passes. You're also going to have those days when you want to throw your hands up in the air and just quit. And you know what, that's OK. You know it will only be temporary before you say to yourself "what the heck am I doing?". Don't forget you're human, and will have emotions that you never thought exisited. Yeah, you heard me right, you're human. Who would of thunk, eh? :o)
Hope to see you soon. Keep fighting and stay strong.

So great to hear from you!
Hola!
It is so great to hear from you, Eric. Ever the realist! ;0)
The path to recovery may be a long one but I am positive you will beat all odds! So, keeping that in mind, settle down in your new abode and let me know when you are up for a visit. I can't wait to see you....
BTW, you'll get a kick out of this - remember when we met for lunch the week before your new job and discussed various ways to get me out of my traffic ticket? Well, I went for the court hearing, all prepared to out-wit the cop, and he never showed!!
More when we meet.
Hugs!

Hey Bud
Hi Eric
It was great to read your update.... To hear that you won't need the second surgery and that you will be going to a Hospital closer to home. Your attitude is totally amasing and it uplifted me as I am sure it did for everyone that read it. Let me know if I can help in any way and once you get internet access send me an email. You are in my thoughts everyday.
