It sounds like they will be missing you, too!

This is a bummer, this Covid19 and all of the angst it is causing.  Up until a couple days ago I was still thinking, "Well, maybe we'll still just make the trip on Friday and get almost no sleep--manage to do 'Copia on Saturday at least."  But I think now my more sensible nature is taking over, and this just won't be our year to make the trip. 

I am recovering well, and feeling good now.  Looking forward to all of the testing and doctor appointments on Friday, and hopefully to having my restrictions (lifting, pushing, driving, riding in the front seat of the car) relaxed.   But both of us have significant health issues, and we are 74 years old.  Just not a great time to come spend two days with a few thousand people in Wisconsin.  So far Michigan doesn't have the virus. . .but of course it is just a waiting game.

Spartan2,

Glad recovery is going well.

Your Spartans played well today and had big win at home in East Lansing vs.Ohio St. Really enjoyed watching Cassius Winston these past 4 years. The All American went out with 27 points today. The hug with Izzo at the end of the game was a highlight.

I am sure you are smiling today.

Thanks.  Yes, we are smiling--we were with a small group of area Spartan Alums at Buffalo Wild Wings to watch the game, and it was a fun time.  Added bonus was that on our way home we could listen to the post-game festivities, and hear the seniors speak, as well as Izzo's remarks. 

Now on to the tournaments!

Thought perhaps I should report that we are home from seven appointments plus a blood draw at U of Michigan Hospital.  All went very well, and all of the news I got was really good!  I asked Dr. Pagani if he "fixed" my heart and he smiled and said, "Yes I did."

He ordered some cardiac rehab here in town, but he said my concerns about Neil's vulnerability to Covid19 are valid, so I can wait for a month or so to decide.  In the meantime, keep walking a lot, riding the stationary bike, and get on with my life.  NO RESTRICTIONS!!   Grin Grin

Now if the world just weren't such a mess.   Cry Cry

That's great news SP2  Smiley

  Now that you have a good heart, you can get moving more which will make you feel much better over-all.

This Coronavirus non-stop coverage is making me nuts. I remember when the Swine Flu sickened 60 MILLION Americans and killed 12,000 plus and the media DIDN'T make it out as bad as they're doing right now with less than 100 people dead.  Sad Angry

It always feels less of a mess when you know you have a spotter you can count on.  Wink
