Today [7]

They operate me on Tuesday next week. Am quite afraid, it's a shame they have no whisky on hospital café. Could use some now.

Kari, there's no shame in being afraid in a hospital.

I don't even like getting poked with a needle...I was in the hospital three extra days because I needed shots in the stomach for 10 days, twice a day, and the first three days of the 10, I couldn't give myself the shot! Lucky for me, one of the nurses and her counterpart on the opposite shift spent some time talking me through it....I managed to get through the next week at home doing it, but to this day, I still don't like the needles.

Let Angie and the nurses know of your fear of this upcoming operation, even if you have to type it out and show them the words....they may be able to help you get ready for it the way my nurses got me ready to go home.

Today is Cinco de Mayo

Yup. This means that it´s my birthday

I don´t see any gift until now (but put in my wishlist a Bamboo Wacom and a Corsair Graphite 600T ).

I´m at school, right now, and I want to give a warm and great Thank You to all those geek, nerd, and insane people that´s jumping in my PM box today.

You rock, guys. You are awesome, girls.

I´m happy with this "new family" that I find in these forums.

All the best Kari My eldest son was born with epilepsy among other things and I have gone through a lot of hospital visits and one very big OP. With out going into details I was also very afraid for my then 9 year old and like you they took a lot of time to deicide when to operate. Afterwards I learnt that this time was spent deciding how to operate to get the best possible results.
I'm thinking of you and remembering how I felt all those years ago and I'll say it again, you have some of the best Doctors in the world looking after you.
Now hurry up and get well again!!

Best wishes are going out to Kari, hang in there, we all all pulling for you.

Sorry to hear about the bad news Punkster, wishing the best outcome for your Uncle.



I'm at my Dive Resort for a few days, good to see old friends.
The internet connectivity here makes mine at home seem good. Which is not a good thing.
