Surgery tomorrow means no more fsjs

Post by carnuck »

They are putting in a new valve through the aorta unless things go south I’ll be recuperating over a couple days. Docs didn’t like the look of the spine damage due to wear and tear plus the rollover crash when I was run off the road by the drug cooking neighbor. Over the summer my projects have been stripped of many parts by his thieving buddies. Our place will be for sale either way as I won’t be able to do anything myself. Even video of one of them trespassing and stealing the wiring harness and parts from my Comanches wasn’t enough to have him trespassed. They are making life hell for everyone in the area.
This time I’m not bouncing right back, but whatever happens there will be a pile of bills and everything that they have stolen from my family and others keeps these crack roaches alive (auto incorrect changed the word, but it seems fitting)
Now our lives of work are reduced to near zero and my wife (who recently had her own health issues to deal with) has a pile of bills to deal with.

Maybe they’ll use too much C4 and not enough foresight. Traffic on the highway across the river complained about the gravel pit blasts in the middle of the night summer of 2018. Illegal mining and meth lab explosions more likely.

Wishing you a speedy recovery, I always enjoy your sense of humor. Too bad about the noxious neighbors, it is always terrible to have to endure the pilfering from known people

I'm sorry to hear of your struggles. Good new, if there is any, is that there aren't old meth cooks. Explosion, getting high on their own supply, visits from competitors...all reduce life spans. I'm hopeful that things do turn around for you!

What a bummer to hear about the surgery- and to add insult to injury with the crazy neighbors is terrible, too.

Here’s to a speedy recovery!

Put some Ajax and Drano in some little baggies and spread them around with some IV needles and pipes and lighters. They won’t be able to help themselves...

I made it! A week ago I could almost be mistaken for a zombie. Now my blood O2 is 97% without trying hard. I’m feeling though that I went a couple rounds with a dwarf using my family jewels for a speed bag!

Great news, sat of 97% is a good number (same number for me), a little groin pain eh! Looks like a speedy recovery on the way, cheers

you are probably on blood thinner, so watch for signs of bleeding

LOL My local nurse practitioner sent me to Alb to see a Hematologist year before last for elevated red blood count and only a 97% oxygen rate, long story short after most of a year having to have blood draws every 2 months the Japanese Doc assigned to my case (I swear he looked and sounded like every stereo type Japanese male you every saw in a WW2 movie) after some discussion he said I see you live at over 6,500 feet, I think it would be reasonable for you to have more red blood cells and they carry a lower oxygen rate, go forth and darken my door no more!
A couple of months later I am talking to cousins who live at 7,000 feet, and one of them told me they had a new doctor intown who was wanting to bleed everybody because they had too many red blood cells , when the old doc stepped in and told him the same thing people at altitude tend to have more red blood cells.
