Journal entry by Robert Mahan

I am writing one last time to update you on my condition.  October 19th marked 3 months that I have been home.  As you know, I was very tired and weak when I first got back.  I had to use a walker to get around.  My primary care doctor said it would probably be 6 months to a year before I was back to normal.  (Whatever that is).  Well, I now feel almost back to normal.  Last week I walked 2 miles three different times and I have graduated from physical therapy.  We went on a 3-day vacation with friends two weeks ago and all was fine.  I have been driving our car for a long time and last night played poker for almost 5 hours.  I have been cleared to chip and putt and allowed to practice swing a driver.  

I really am writing to thank each and everyone of you for the nice entries and kind words.  I would write you individually but there were so many entries.  I didn’t know I had that many friends.  It is very gratifying.  I don’t remember much from the time I was sick but that’s ok.  It’s just great to be here.  Thanks again everyone.  Bob
