Tube is Out!
I no longer have a tube coming out of my stomach!
This afternoon, Jeanette drove me down to Toronto General Hospital. They took me in at 1:00 PM and by 1:15 PM I was tube-free. It only stung slightly as the doctor slid the tube out; no anaesthetic necessary. I'm not to eat or drink until after 6:00 PM today and I'm to keep the bandage dry for the next 48 hours, after which the wound should be all healed up. What a contrast to the fiasco of putting the tube in.
To celebrate being newly unencumbered, I've purchased a water bottle with jogging holster. I hope to start running again by the end of the week. Hey, once you're free of the Matrix, you gotta rebuild those atrophied muscles.

Oh Tubeless one! Congratulations. But instead of running can you just hook yourself up to a muscle stimulation program?
As I recall from the film, they rebuilt Neo's muscles using hundreds of acupuncture type needles. I've had enough of getting stuck with needles for a while. Although, if it meant learning ju-jitsu in seconds, I might go for one big needle stuck in the back of my head...
