Salvete!
Friends, this message will be brief. I will send a longer message later.
I had surgery recently. It took about two weeks until I was out of intensive care. I'm still at the hospital but breathing on my own and getting stronger.
The doctors say that I will require more treatments, but no further surgery. So I have that to look forward too. I have things to do. I am glad to now get some work done. Life has no purpose without good work being done.
I'm a bit worse for wear, but will be returning to my post as Consul of this beautiful Res Publica. The Gods and Goddess of Rome keep you.
Your public servant.
