the post was created by a freak? now that hurts.
we settled on our house yesterday. good thing! we are renting back to them till april.
sick as heck yesterday. it took all i had to get through it. i almost postponed cause of how bad i felt. i decided to brave it for the wifes sake. we had to explain to all involved to make sure no one would be upset with me getting up frequently for the restroom.
we settled then went to dinner to celebrate. after dinner my wife finallycame down enough from her excitement to notice i was paLE as casper. too much fun i guess...... running fever 103.5 so it looks like no treatments for the weekend. i made it through for her so i was happy.
no new info from the doctors yet either

I feel for you, I've had the flu for a little longer than 2 weeks now. Yeah, we even get the flu in Florida!!!!!

But - - - I still have enough strength to keep you in my prayers.

Wishing you and the Wife the best of luck.

It takes a real man to admit to having cancer. I know you're strong by admitting how serious the condition is. With the great group of people here at FTE I feel we'll keep you going thru the difficult times. I know they helped me pull thru not long ago with my mother. Hang in their George better days are just around the corner.

ok. the doctor said the ulcer was far enough away that he would be able to operate oin the gallbladder without risk of death or serious injury. isnt that nice to hear? well he said that the gallbladder is almost completely worthless and poisoning me. as soon as the insurance co will allow he is setting up surgery for removal.
how or why would the ins co question the need for surgery? i know that some peoplke take the co for all they have and abuse them but not with me. ive had extended doctor paper traiuls so they know im not joking. i need what i need to survive right now.
the docs are bugged about the co too. they need to remove the gallbladder now not when they want to ok it.
oh well we'll wait for them to check the paper trail for there approval. thanks for letting me rant.

When My Mother had hers removed they counted 48 stones. The largest two were the size of a peach pit.
The smallest was the size of a BB.

She was in temendous pain and removing it helped her considerably.

Who put it there in the 1st place?

the worst is when the doc says that 48% of people after the operation have "loose bowels" for 6 to 8 months. wow i dont want to be in that group.

We're still keeping you and your family in our prayers.

Don't worry about us, we'll still be here when you get back. I think you need to keep your focus on that wife of your's and yourself.

Good luck.

George, best of luck with the surgery in the a.m. We are all praying for your recovery.

Here's a little story of my own, hope it cheers you up...

A few years ago I needed surgery and went in for pre-op blood work. Now keep in mind that the site of my own blood makes me nauseus to the point of passing out.

I get to the blood lab and sit in that chair that's almost like a baby's high-chair with a tray for your arms. The nurse taking my blood was not wearing her professional uniform. Instead she was wearing a very unprofessional low-cut blouse. And she was...um, very close to her work.

So there I was getting my blood taken with the perfect excuse for getting an eyeful...and I had to turn my head and look the other way! D'oh!

Scott
