Just talked to him via AIM and he made it through surgery fine and is home. He'll probably be sleeping the rest of the day or so, but doing fine.
He is mandated with 2 weeks of bed/home rest, so I am sure we are going to be seeing enough of him on here for that time as stir craziness will be setting in if he can't get out and toy shop.
I think his wife is going to be locking his eBay account for good measure [img]wink.gif[/img]
Good to see hes doing fine [img]smile.gif[/img]
Good to hear! [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
Great news! If you talk with him again before he hits the board, be sure to tell him we're all thinking of him (you don't have to specify what we're thinking [img]wink.gif[/img] ).
I did tell that some of us were goign to be a "little" disappointed since we have been looking over the picures of his collection to put our stake down.....just in case.
his response was his wife was disappointed since she now can't put his collection on eBay [img]wink.gif[/img]
good to hear he came thru.
not like we had any doubts...
and the locking the ebay idea is probably a good thing... [img]wink.gif[/img]

Glad to hear he's ok.
What kind of surgery was it?
gall bladder removal if I remember correctly
Wow....can anyone fill me in on what happened? I see surgery and ebay here, I'm guessing he has to have an operation and needed to sell some stuff?
Glad to hear he's doing ok...
good!!! great that he is doing good [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
Great to hear all went well!
good to know! [img]smile.gif[/img] hopefully he can get up and get my money order in a week or so! [img]tongue.gif[/img]
whats going on?!?!?!??! someone email me on how I can help please!
He is fine Chaser. He had to go in and get his Gall Bladder removed due to it causing pain at times due to stones I think.
It was day surgeory and he is home and fine. Just sleepy today from what he sais. Also home bound for the next two weeks due to recovery and the pains meds he is on.
I am sure we are going to be seeing a lot of him in the coming weeks.
[img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img] Get Well, Soon! [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
glad everything went ok with him.
Thanks for the well wishes everyone. The surgery went fine and now hopefully all the pain I've been having since '98 will be a thing of the past.
But it had to hit me one last time before the surgery [img]frown.gif[/img] . The pain woke me up at 5am Sunday morning so I took the medicine they had given me from my last doctor's visit. This time the medicine didn't help at all so I had Sue take me to the ER. They finally got rid of most of the pain about 2pm and went ahead and admitted me then instead of me having to come back this morning. I definitely would have gotten more rest at home though, lol, since they had to come in and wake me up every 2 hours to take my vitals.
The surgery wasn't too bad, just 4 1/4" incisions on my stomach. I'm a little sore now but the Vicodin they have me on is easily taking care of the pain, lol. Not to mention helping me catch up on the sleep I lost at the hospital. Initially the doctor said I'd be off for 1 week to convalesce but when I got all of the paperwork after the surgery, it had me authorized to be off 2 weeks. And it's all paid time off [img]biggrin.gif[/img] .
So all you bastids that were eyeing my collection pics like vultures over a dead body can move on to the next carcass, lol. But don't be disappointed by yourselves. Sue is down in the dumps cuz she was ready to put the collection up on Ebay, lol. Guess all that insurance money isn't enough [img]eek.gif[/img] . (this part is a joke, lol).

Wish him well!!!!http://pages.prodigy.net/indianahawk...wpage14/16.gif
He's weak; we could work out a deal with his wife! [img]wink.gif[/img]
Get well soon 316!
All the best to the man. [img]smile.gif[/img]
so that's 4 incisions of 1/4" right?
not a 4 /14" cut...
Good to hear you made it, 316! Health scares like those can be unnerving to say the least, ach. How old are you, if I may ask?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I'm 36. Funny thing about being in the hospital over night was freaking out the nurses that kept coming to take my vitals. I have a naturally low heart rate and each time a new nurse came to check my vitals they would freak out a little thinking it was the meds I was on, lol.Quote:

whew...
I was thinking you meant one big cut...
that would have been nasty, and probably a bitch to heal...
anyhooters, like we've said, glad you are doing well.
and the package you sent me is gonna show up tomorrow, I just have a feeling...
and then Carnage will join the roster of the PPWA.
Feel better brotha! [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
Glad to know everything went well. Enjoy your 2 weeks off now [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
Get better soon Rusty and try to enjoy your time off. Maybe it will be best if you just stayed out of your toy room for a while. [img]wink.gif[/img]
<font size="1">It will give us time to put everything back!</font>
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Hmm, let me think about this one: 52" TV, computer, most comfortable couch in the house....ummmm I think I'll stay in the basement with my toys thank you [img]biggrin.gif[/img] [img]cool.gif[/img]Quote:

And Sue really does love me. She slept in the basement last night too...on the loveseat [img]eek.gif[/img] . I know that was uncomfortable for her 'cuz I've taken a nap on that short ass thing, lol.
Best of luck, I'm glad everything went well, and it sounds like you've got a good woman there by your side....Take Care
Glad you make 316... [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Damn, that package hasn't shown up yet? Slow ass canadian postmen I tell ya, lol. Please keep me posted on it though.Quote:
