Indeed, sleep is important now. The worst is over, it's time for you to
catch up on your rest for when he comes home. He is in good hands.
Speaking for myself, I wish people would stay away when I'm ill, even close
loved ones. My family says when I'm sick I'm like an ol' mean dog who crawls
up under the porch and growls at everyone who comes near.

Actually, Val, with his increased oxygen levels and renewed energy, he
may not feel so sick. Most post-op patients are thrilled with the
results of the surery and are anxious to get back to normal
activities.
