Tom Steel

I was talking with an RCCer yesterday and he told me now that I have metal stuff in my body holding me together I need a new name like Iron Tom or something, but since it's stainless steel in me, we settled for Tom Steel

Yes, I am back! A great big thank you to everyone to has been praying for me and my family...I survived the surgery, and it appears to be a success at this time. I'm back home recovering nicely.

It certainly would not have been as smooth without my wife who spent 14-hour days at the hospital keeping me on track and my parents who stepped up to watch the kids for three of the four days we were gone.

I certainly missed RCC while out, but unfortunately for me, will have to take another Sunday off still to recover. I have big restrictions from the surgeon, but I'm sure they will relax as I go.
