I hear you on the recovery. they told me last summer at least 10 days of strength lost for every day in bed. that was about right (I was 2.5 months in hospitals and SNF) but the mental stuff...ugh! still working on the fuzz brain and just passed the one year anniversary of the start of that ordeal.
