Dear teachers,
I know there is a very ingenious idiom namely"perk up"
perk up (idiom)
Restore to good spirits, liveliness, or good appearance, as in
You're exhausted, but a cup of tea will perk you up, or
The flowers perked up the whole room.
I beat my brains whether I may write the following two sentences.
My friend recently underwent a difficult operation for cancer. He is perked up considerably since the operation and is now up and about again.
Is it possible to merge them in one succinct sentence? Would you give me a leg up?
Thank you in advance for your efforts.
Regards.
