Trouble With Initials

Well, Liz is into income tax returns full tilt now, which means most evenings she is on here. Plus, on the Mondays she manages to take off, this computer is kicking out returns. That's okay. I know she enjoys doing it, at a nominal fee, as a ministry more than a moneymaker. I haven't vacated the... Sign in to see full entry.

Well, I don't know how many people told me no to overdo it as I recover from the surgery, and I'm still not sure what I did, but on Tuesday by mid afternoon my temp was 103F. Liz got home from work and saw how pale I was and immediately loaded me into the car to go to the clinic. Our doc checked me... Sign in to see full entry.

It will be two weeks tomorrow since I got out of the hospital and could hardly get up the strength to get into the car (Liz driving, of course) to get home. Now two weeks have passed and I am slowly recovering and getting some strength back. I've been out in the car for a short drive and am trying... Sign in to see full entry.

Thank you for all your prayers and support over this past week. Rather tha 7 - 10 days in the hospital, the Docs let me come home today, after 6 days. I'll keep this short tonight and fill you in more as the week progresses. I am sitting here in front of the computer in a "johnny Coat" the hospital... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm not going to try to do anymore blogging today or tomorrow. I may read a bit if time allows but that will be it. Today is packing day and tomorrow I'll be "indisposed" again, getting "cleansed" for Monday's surgery.Thanks to everyone who's taken a minute to post they are, and will be...

Well, I had my Pre-Med appointment yesterday and found it to be very comprehensive especially my chats with the Pharmacist and the anesthesiologist. It seemed like I was meeting everyone but the CEO (unless maybe he was that guy who..no, couldn't be...) I found out the procedure I'll be getting is... Sign in to see full entry.

Tomorrow I have to attend a pre-admission clinic at the hospital at 10a.m. For someone who's only surgery up until now has been tonsil removal when I was 7 or 8, this is all new to me. A pre-admission appointment does make sense though as the surgery is scheduled for 8a.m. Monday morning, and they... Sign in to see full entry.

A little more news healthwise: Looks like I'll be going to hospital on Feb. 13th for surgery - removal of the cancerous polyp. Had another scope done yesterday and the specialist "Tatooed" (that's the term they used) the spot to be removed so that it will be easier to operate and get rid of it come...

I had a pleasant surprise last weekend when at the library I discovered a new Robert B. Parker book, entitled "Killing the Blues". Well, as you know if you're one who enjoys Parker's novels, he's been dead almost two years now. A close friend and collaborator with Parker when he was alive, Michael... Sign in to see full entry.

Just a quick followup on yesterday's test: The test wasn't anywhere near as bad as I expected it to be as told to me by "well intentioned" individuals who had had a colonoscopy done at some time. The preparation day before, was actually worse than the test. Even when the Doc said, "I want to see you... Sign in to see full entry.
