Here I am engaging in Occupational Therapy (OT; arms/upper-body exercises) at Cascades at Delray Beach, my physical rehabilitation facility, this morning (December 11, 2025). I also engage in Physical Therapy (PT; exercises for my legs and walking with a walker).
I am also receiving four bags of powerful intravenous antibiotics every day during a six-week-long daily regimen for a bone infection in the big toe of my left foot, started at the hospital and continued here. Tomorrow is my last day. I could be going home in two days, but I still can't walk without a walker, so I may need more OT and PT.I had eight surgeries (1 heart, 2 chest, 2 spine, 1 right ankle, plus the following 2 surgeries) between March 2022 and November 2025, so I never really regained my strength and my stamina. My two most recent surgeries were:
November 4, 2025: artery bypass surgery (3-foot-long blockage in main artery in my left leg; removal of 3-foot-long vein in my right leg to be inserted within my left leg to bypass my blocked artery)
November 8, 2025: left foot surgery (3rd and 4th toes of left foot amputated due to artery blockage)
