He has a positive attitude, which is great. I checked with property manager about the drapes and they said they would replace all with blinds. Best. Landlord. Ever!
My husband just had a splenectomy Friday to prepare for BMT. He’s up walking a bit yesterday and working on getting pain under control. They figure a 6 week recovery period pre BMT. While he is recovering in the hospital, I’ve been able to walk around the area to get my bearings. Very nice community.

Good morning! You and your husband have been on my mind the past couple of days and up you pop! It’s a relief to hear he’s already had the surgery. Things are moving quickly!

It sounds like you’ve found a real gem to live in for the summer and are settling in nicely. I agree, your landlord sounds incredibly accommodating! What a lucky find! How’s your little dog adapting to the new life? Lots of new places to walk and sniff. ☺️

It’s good to hear you’re out exploring Rochester. It really is a wonderful city. My husband spent hours walking around the neighborhoods and the trails along Bear Creek and the river.
He’d tell me about all the wildlife and interesting spots he found. Finally, when I got strong enough I was able to join my husband for some shorter walks to see what he was talking about. Now, when we go to Rochester for my checkups, we both head out for an hour or two on the familiar trails. Rochester is our home away from home. ☺️

As your husband recovers from his surgery, there is a really fun event held every Thursday downtown you both might be enjoy. Vendors, food, music. It’s downtown near the Peace Plaza. https://www.downtownrochestermn.com/events/thursdaysdowntown

Wishing your husband a speedy recovery this week. ☺️
How’s the search for a stem cell donor coming along?
