Out To Dinner

Not everyone has been sure that "no news is good news," so I thought I would make a brief post to say that there has been some progress--a little more strength, a little less pain, and a lot less bloat. Charlie's weight is back to what it was before the surgery, although he has clearly lost weight and is still carrying excess fluid, primarily in his feet. Tonight we will see if the Italian restaurant Raffaele, on First Avenue near 57th Street, can fatten him up a bit. It will be the first time we have been out since the beginning of August.
