11/7 Sat update

[Joe Haldeman]

CT scan says Joe's pancreas is functioning well. Yay! He'll stay on IV antibiotics in the hospital until at least Monday. Then probably back to the Drake Center for more physical therapy.  We were hoping to get him out into the real world, but he's still pretty weak.  He says he doesn't feel quite so much like he's walking around on Jupiter any more, but it's still hard work.  He had another shower today that he enjoyed immensely.  I stopped for a beautiful pair of deer to cross the road.  Joe said I saved some doe and passed the buck.  Love, Gay
