Kathy’s surgery went according to schedule today, even a bit earlier than expected. The Doc said he got the job done and she should be fine in a few weeks. For the next week she is to be on a liquid diet; after that, she can begin eating soft foods, a little at the time. She will return to the Doc in a week.

When asked about the “new woman” promise, the Doc backtracked at bit saying, “I am only a surgeon.” I don’t know what he meant by that, so I will leave that up to your imagination.

As to the liquid diet: Travis thought he said “liquor” diet and boy was he excited. I guess he was going to join Kathy in her new diet. I had to pull him aside and tell him that he had misunderstood what the Doc said. He was saddened.

Both Kathy & Travis are now at  home enjoying a liquid diet. If you want to bring food and such like, water will suffice, as liquid is the word of the day.
