Blogger no longer sends email to followers when there are new posts. This is a bug and there's nothing I can do about it. So please visit often and let your friends know too. I've hidden the annoying "Followers" gadget too. Uy vey.


Mid-day update - one mile walk

After a shower and a wardrobe change, I felt good enough to take a stroll.  They tell me that if you do a full lap around the entire 8th floor, that's 800 feet.  So I just did that 7 seven times.  By the 4th or 5th lap, I was getting a bunch of thumbs up from the staff.


Tired now.  Gonna nap. 

I will kick its ass,

  1. You are a rock star! I remember walking the distance from my room to the baby room the first night after my c-section to get Hope. I woke up and wanted her next to me. They said if I could make it that I could bring her back with me. Damn straight! Your mile kicks my walk's ass. See, already kicking ass, Jay Gee! xoxoxo from Philly.

  8. Hi there -
    This is Nancy - Steve Cook's wife. He shared your blog and I have read through your posts. Great attitude - stay strong! Cancer is a bitch! I know --- I hope you have seen my blog too -- finished my regime about a week ago and can't wait to feel normal. I guess that may be a while. I thought I would post on your mile walk post since I think that is really a great healing thing to do while in treatment - so keep it up. Know that we are thinking of you and sending prayers, etc. your way!

    Nancy & Steve

  12. John, I just heard about your fight. I love that you're rockin the Steal Your Face in the hospital hallways -- when you get back to the office we'll have to talk a little Jerry! In the meanwhile, here's a little box of rain to help out:

    Maybe you're tired and broken
    Your tongue is twisted
    with words half spoken
    and thoughts unclear
    What do you want me to do
    to do for you to see you through
    A a box of rain will ease the pain
    and love will see you through

    Kick its ass!
    Caroline (from work)
