Now lets get some quality flame wars going!

It's the fishing hole

No stress yet John! I will behave..

Larry, the doctor found partially digested eels in my gut and sent them off for testing to determine the exact area they came from

Surgery was quite an experiance, it took 3 and a half hours! I am amazed at the skill of these doctors...Just amazed...This guy is my new hero!

So again, no worries...To weak for flame wars at this point....and under the influance of percoset.....very good stuff!

I am just so thankfull to be at this point

Get Well

Feel better and pay attention Bill: young friend, 31 abouts, I used to work with went in and out of hospital with same issues 3 times in a year and a half. Kept getting reinfected and thet snipped a little more each time.

Good health and family

Welcome back Bill!

I had the same surgery 5 years ago and it changed my life!! wait until this spring and early summer. You'll see what I mean. In the interim, don't lift anything! I thought I could lift my 12# kid at the time and literally almost ripped the staples out. Laproscopy or not, there are still stitches in there.

Take it easy and I look forward to seeing you around.
