Nice photo!

You seem too somber to me.

Wait, I will cheer you up with this classic bit of Klingon humor.

Q: Doq'a' SuvwI'pu'?

A: ghobe'. SuD.

Please, please don't pop any stitches laughing (as has been known to happen on the homeworld all too often).

In a similar spirit, an Esperanto joke:

Q: Kial la ĝirafo neniam estas sola?
A: Ĉar li ĉiam havas kolegon!

One of the first ones I ever heard, and still a favorite! If that doesn't cheer you up, surely nothing will!

You look good!

Yay! A picture of Jay surrounded by green growing things!

(You look great.)

This post alone is worth the rest of the update posts combined.

Good pic--your color is about as healthy as anyone could hope for, hospital stays and surgery or not.

Aw ... <3
You look great, dude.

Love back, Wendy & the A&A staff. You look a little worse for the wear, but who wouldn't?

You look pretty good, actually.

You look huggable, although of course I'd want to do it gently.

You look entirely too noble. Keep that up and you'll give people the wrong idea.

You're brave -- not for taking the picture, just in general.

Go fighting Jays!

Feels good to be back outside, doesn't it? And today is such a beautiful day here. It's amazing what a difference being able to be out and about makes during recuperation.

Yay, Jay!

Today I walked outside. I took my own picture there.

...and tomorrow you can wake up again and do the same. Or choose not to. And that's the beauty of life.

You look good surrounded in greenery. Looking forward to seeing you surrounded by friends and loved ones at your birthday party.

::hugs::

And what a pretty day it was, at least up here in Seattle.

May every day have at least one good thing to be thankful for! I bet you'll be pounding past us all on wordcount, soon. If not already.

Curious question. Assuming a full recovery, in what ways will do you expect this to change you?

Assuming a full recovery, in what ways will do you expect this to change you?

I've learned to smile more. I've learned to be more vocal in my likes and loves. I've learned not to take a lot of things for granted. I've learned (a little) of what it will mean to be old old or disabled.

I suspect my answer to that question will change every day you ask it, and substantially over time.

Good to see you walking about, Jay. Damn good.

Good to see you out and about. Keep on getting better!

Lovely picture, Jay. Glad you're out of hospital and able to enjoy the lovely weather.

Yeah outside !!!!! :) Gald to see you are feeling better.

Thinks. Where's a distant horizon when a man is trying to look noble and stoic at the same time? Those Leylandii have got to go. Sometime. Not necessarily soon.

By the way, the light makes you look a little greybearded. They already cast Ian McKellen, you know.

You've been in my thoughts a lot lately, and it's good to see that you're home.

Yay! :)

you should call this one "The new Zen of Jay"

Hey, how about that. You look just like you. :)

Keep mending.
