dgman Posted October 23, 2018 Report Posted October 23, 2018 Well I have been in the hospital since Thursday afternoon (10/18/2018). I have what is called Diverticulitis. It is an inflammation of my intestines. Worst part is the inflammation is laying on my bladder which makes me want to pee constantly. I have been on I V antibiotics since I was admitted. I was told today that I may need surgery but I have to wait another day before they decide what they are going to do. So, I apologize for not responding much the past few weeks as I just haven’t had the gumption. I’ll try to keep you all apprised. Phantom Scroller, ChelCass, OCtoolguy and 2 others 2 3 Quote
Bill WIlson Posted October 23, 2018 Report Posted October 23, 2018 Sorry to hear that Dan. I've never had it, but know a couple folks who have. No fun at all, from what I understand. Hope you get better and back on your feet soon. OCtoolguy and dgman 2 Quote

amazingkevin Posted October 24, 2018 Report Posted October 24, 2018 Hospitals are taxi with the meter running! Post some pictures of your work on the room welcome board, I do. Black pepper is the only pepper that's not water soluble. If caught in pockets of the intestines can wreak havoc by burning away till removed. Your scroll saw and SSV miss you. dgman and OCtoolguy 1 1 Quote
