Seek,

Get well & soon.

I got sick last April, and I'm still dealing with it, but most days are a little better than their predecessors.

SeekHer; I see you're online and posting. Does that mean it's all over and you came through OK, or are you filling the time while waiting?

Thanks for all the well wishes...I'm going to be prepped in about an hour for the 1400 time and the next time I'll be awake will be around 2200 tonight...My wife just went to get coffee and all the girls were here bothering me all night--It was great.

Chris, if you see a couple, three vans pull up and 14 complete strangers start pounding on the door, please don't shoot them as their mine and not a bunch of bible thumpers wanting to save your soul! Thanks for the offer.

Mike, did you get the e-mail I sent on Tues?

Randy, just a little longer for the first needle, I’m all ready shaved and disinfected...Surgery will begin a little after 2:00 pm...Just wanted to post some stuff that I got in e-mails before I go under...thanks again!

Denis, got your e-mails, thanks!

Bye Now...these meds are pretty good I'll tell you...Here comes the battle axe (nurse/matron)!!!

It’s Alive! It’s Alive! Just checking in.

Well, I’m awake and have been told that everything went very well—no complications and I was out of surgery and in I.C. Recovery by 1900 so about a four hour operation.

I’m hooked up to the “Injector” machine again giving me doses of morphine when I need it which is not a lot…It’s more discomfort then pain. The kids were here to see me during visiting hours but only one at a time and for five minutes.

I’ll start a liquid diet tomorrow although they allowed me an ounce, maybe, of some kind of milk shake like drink that was delicious as I had nothing in my system for two days…Sort of like an Ensure supplement drink is the best I can describe it - Chocolate!

My family all thank you for your well wishes.

I think I’ll go to sleep now.
