hi Toni...all is well

Dec 24, 2014 3:08AM PST

just my luck that 2014 was a real bummer health wise

last May i went in to hospital for a double femoral by-pass (to solve problems due to Leriche syndrome)
when i woke up the doctor said "anything that could go wrong, did!) after slicing me open they found a
4" growth sitting on my large intestine, a sudden change of plan and 5 days in ICU later i was minus
growth, still with my original problem and a host of nightmares and LSD type illusions that took their
sweet time letting go,
i arrived home after a month in hospital less 26 pounds, weak as a kitten yellowish and with teeth wobbling
as i ate. slept almost non-stop for a week and it took a hell of a lot longer to get to stage where i could a little
and shower on my own than i could ever imagine.

went back in about 3 months ago for another op (not as invasive as the first) and a week in hospital was
enough to get me on my feet and walking without pain Happy

so........... all i well, health is appreciated and the family is at peace with the world......

thanks to all who asked/inquired and i wish you all a VERY Happy Christmas and a HEALTHY New Year

go well
stay well

My good friend...I'm so happy to hear from you again
Dec 24, 2014 3:41AM PST

I've got a few email addys for you that I wasn't sure were any good anymore....if any of the old ones are still working, I'll write. I have so much to tell you....and so many prayers to send in your direction (but forum angels are pretty good at finding their targets even without an email addy lol). I'm so sorry you went thru so much healthwise, but it does my heart good to see you made it to the 'other side'.

I love you and wish your family all the good fortune and happiness a friend can send. Thank you so much for letting me (us) know you and your family are well. Bless you and yours in a dangerous time. As usual, keep your head and butt down........the world has turned upsidedown.
