Hey everyone. I really don't know what to say right now. It makes me feel so good to read all the post in this thread. Sorry I haven't got back on here yet, but I needed a little time to sort this out. Thanks so much for the well wishes. If you guys would know my family history on this, you would know why this is happening. I will do everything that I am supposed to do as far as medicine and the rest of the things that should keep me alive, but that never worked before. I am up to 10 stints now and I don't think I will be going in for more any time soon.

Thanks Roland and David for keeping everyone up to date with what is going on. Phyllis is not letting me go to the store this week. I don't like her loading the sacks of feed because I am not there. I should be good to go Monday. The Dr. said for me to take 6 weeks off. That ain't going to happen.

Glad ya feel better and I'm sure Phyllis will appreciate your help - but please don't hurt my favorite cajun buddy by not following the Dr's instructions. Mmmmkay?

I did 6wks on my bed after back surgery and I swear I thought I would explode. I bet I coulda done anything I wanted after about a week, but I did what they said and I'm sure I got better sooner.

That family history may be stacking the odds against you - but it doesn't mean its hopeless. I'm sure they've lectured about diet and exercise, DO IT and see if you can't tell the difference!

Looking forward to that crawfish boil GTG in a couple months!!!!

Thanks everyone. Yeah, I will do what I think I should do. I can't just give up on life and sit in the house all the time. What happens will happen and that should be good enough for me.

Let us know Barney. I talked to Roland and know what you guys have planed next week.
