Three weeks ago yesterday, Jay was inside the operating room at the Royal Columbian Hospital.

I find it hard to decide if this seems like a short or long time ago. I do know that he seems to improve each day. Having a quintuple bypass operation is a pretty major event. So many parts of his body are working to heal! He still gets tired quite easily and this may also be due to the fairly strong beta blocker he is taking.
Getting in the truck for usual errands seems pretty normal now. For example, it is habit enough for him to automatically grab his 'heart' pillow before heading out the door. It must be placed on his chest prior to fastening the seat-belt. Eventually that collar bone will mend. Today, we took an opportunity after rush hour to drive over to Queensborough for a little shopping at the Bulk Barn.
