Well today was bitter sweet. Sweet in the sense that I took my first shower on my own after the surgeries. Bitter in the sense that I won't be recieving any more sponge baths.

Hmm... sponge baths by a 5'7" brunette vs. independence and feeling good about yourself.
Definitely a two pipe problem ;-)

I am in awe of your attitude about the whole thing man. I commend you for being so candid and carefree about it. That makes you a true quiet profesional IMO. And your fiance sounds like a true lady. I have a wonderful wife man and they are few and far between so hang on to her!
