daggiesmom Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Well, I took the plunge. I decided around 5pm to take Dagwood for a walk. This is the first time outside on my own since Dec. 12th! I haven't gone out because I was a little shaky at the knees but it just has gotten to the point that I have Cabin Fever and needed some fresh air! Just walked him outside my apartment building, but he was waggin' his tail and seemed to be saying "Hooray, Mommy's walking me for a change!" (Please excuse me, I'm nuts). Anyway, I figured Brian has walked Dagwood 172 more times than me since December - I called him on the cell phone and told him. Wow, he was happy! A little concerned, but that's ok too. Just wanted to let you know that it seems I'm on the mend. Joanie ((())) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy B Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Oh Joanie, I bet it felt good to get outside. I am so glad to hear that you are healing. I bet your pup is glad too. Take care. Hugs, Nancy B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasey Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 What a super feeling, huh, Joanie? I remember last January after my surgery, it took me a LONG time to venture out. So glad you are progressing and improving. How are you feeling? Give that Daggie dog a big hug from me and a 'WOOF WOOF' is coming from Teddy!!!! Love to all of you, Kasey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginnyde Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Joanie, I bet Dagwood was happy to have you at the other end of the leash. Wish it were warmer in NY for you but at least no snow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melindasue37 Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Joannie, What wonderful news!!!! I bet it felt so good making that call to your husband...getting a little fresh air AND making Dagwood happy. Thanks for putting a smile on our faces today. Great JOB!!

dchurchi Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Joannie, I can only imagine how good it felt to be outside. I know it really picks Alan's spirits up when he gets outside for awhile. Nothing like fresh air. Although our air is filled with smoke and ash at the moment. Keep on getting better, I love when you post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
