I hope you recover quickly, spode. Prayers with you and your family.

Hang in there bud.

Hang in there, dude. Great to see you posting, better still to see pics of you back home recuperating and fighting back.

I just came across this thread - not sure how I missed it! Sorry to hear you are going through this, but it is good to see you post. Just take care of yourself and don't do what my father did when he came back from having a stent put in the artery they call the widowmaker - upend a tube of lay's stacks straight into his mouth.

My thoughts are with you and your family. Take care

Good thoughts and HUGS Elspode.

Yeah... take it slow, Spode.... start where you are... get a little better every day. we'd like to keep you.

... but GENTLY, ok? :)

right. Fighting back is mostly mental, nothing wrong with his brain.....

(well, that wasn't always that way, anyway....)

And don't forget to floss.

Seriously.

That's open to debate

I hope you understand this has been a good thing. You're going to be healthier than you've ever been.

Get well again soon and keep swallowing those pills!

Yeah, it is going to be a good thing. I've had my capacity to be in denial removed. The only person killing me is me. Gotta be better to this vessel...and to all the vessels within!

Im glad you have been given this second chance Els.

Sorry it's taken me so long to post (can't post from home and posting from work is difficult). Hope that you're feeling better really, really soon.
