John is feeling much better, although he needs to get his strength back. The doctor is going to release him tomorrow. While in Lincoln Co Regional Hospital, John has received the best of medical care, from Dr. Reed and the entire nursing staff and especially nurse Kristie and nurse Kristi.

The plan now is to let John rest before we even try to walk again. I think in a week, he may be able to walk a little. So, now we are going to play tourist again. We may go back to Ruidoso, visit Capitan and Alamogordo, etc. May catch up on reading and laundry.

News flash ! Dr. Reed did not like John's pathology report and John's release from the hospital is not a sure thing. We will know more in the morning.

On the way home, Carol and I saw multiple herds of deer. We knew they we here, we just hadn't seen any. Got some good photos that we will post tomorrow. Stay tuned ......
