      I wanted to say thanks for all the thoughts and prayers over the past week while I was going through my bowel resection. As my wife noted in another post, I came home from the hospital yesterday (2/9/2014)! It was really nice to sleep in my own bed… and also really nice not to have the daily 3am visit from the hospital lab vampires to draw more blood :). I feel really good too and am actually working from home today. I am going to put together another post later today to talk about the surgery itself just to shed light and take away fear for anyone else that mighht have to walk down that road in the future. 

      Thanks again for all the support!

      Kevin

                      Hey Kevin,

                      So very, very glad you are home and on the mend.  Rest in the hospital is an oxymoron isn't it?!!!  Hang in there.  I wish you a very speedy recovery!!!  c

                            Glad you're home Kevin and doing well.  Tell Megan not to drop any banannas on your stomach like my wife accidentally did to me during my recovery.  We laugh about it now but it was funny at the time!  Hope you guys don't get hit too bad by the ice storm.  Take care.
