Not dead yet!

Well im still alive! The surgery lasted 7.5 hours and I am one sore dude today.  They are talking like I'll need to stay here for ten days so I have to.get used to it.  I have an NG tube in my nose and that is posing the biggest problem.

Hopefully Loyce will bring my laptop so won't be fighting this little phone.

  1. Hang in there! That waking up in a hospital bed is a memory that tends to stick with a person. Can't say it's a fond one though.

  2. The worst is over now just relax and get your strength back,maybe you can pinch a nurse's fanny for some exercise. Be safe and here's to a fast recovery. Sam & Donna.

  3. Good heavens, I need to go back a few days and catch up with your blog. With the computer issues I've been having I didn't realize you had surgery. Speedy recovery.

  8. Thanks for keeping us up-to-date, Rod. Great to hear from you!

    Think of it as ten days to relax with no hammering, tiling and wiring etc.

    Hope you are up and out of there at the first opportunity.

  9. Good to hear things are done and you are still kicking.

    Rest and relax, I know hard to do in the hospital, but that is what you need right now.

    Thanks for getting an update to us and we will be sending our best wishes for a speedy recovery your way.
