| Hey Ry,

That's great to hear -

I'll be back in the bay area around July or so. If you don't mind - maybe we can meet up - I'd like to take a look at your nose... um what was it.. no homo? or we're all guys here.

It will take a few weeks to get the healing truly settled. The packing or straws that they put in are WONDERFUL, yet simple devices - the straws helped me breath great as it acts like a pathway expander despite all the coagulated blood and post operational crusts. Once they take that out though, and then the coagulated blood starts coming out, you start getting used to it, you'll get more sensitive to your breathing. That's when you'll notice any particulars if any.

Anyway, give us another post operative in a few weeks or so!

I'll be back from Taiwan beginning of July - that should be before your trip back to Hawaii in August.
