Here we go again.......

[Mr Munch88]

Well, tomorow is the big day. Hopefully the last time I head to the hospital for a while. I am having my plastic surgery to rid myself of the extra skin from my weight loss. I am being told I'l feel like I was hit by a mack truck! GREAT!!!Im the person that a hangnail can put me into a coma, and Im going to feel this bad!?! Anyways, I'll be home for 4-6 weeks, so I'lll be pokeing around the board when Im up to it. Thanks for all the past support, and thanks for being online friends!

Ah your very welcome from all of us.;)

But J., does that mean after the plastic surgery, you really liturally won't be stepping out of the house to go anywhere, not even to CEC? I was thinking of gathering another Danvers birthday bash around mid March for Jenn's, and myself's birthdays.:D

[Lilredridinghood]

Hi J, gosh, I hope the Doctors weren't the ones that told you that you'll feel like you got hit by a Mack truck?! I know how you feel, I'm the same with any type of pain just about. Well, here's wishing you a very speedy recovery! All my best!

[cec080]

[Mr Munch88]

[CEC3066]

dang J what'd they do call a Code Blue team (yes I know THEY only show up in cardiac arrest cases) but how on earth did they find all those people to help u.

[Mr Munch88]

YES!

[Mr Munch88]

doing ok thiss morning. they are going to attempt to get me up and around today. I am so scared I'll pass out again.

[CEC3066]

SIT FOR A WHILE before you start to get up then STAND for a while b4 you walk. take a pain med b4 you attempt any of this.

[Mr Munch88]

well I got up at11:30 and sat for 1/2 hour. Things went well, except I draned all over the floorl Not a pretty sight.

[CEC3066]

at least you didn't pass out!

[Mr Munch88]

well...Im getting 2 more units of blood, I am once again on bed rest... will be here for a while!:( :(

[CEC3066]

besides your dear wife have any of the local board members dropped in to see you (Kerry,Jenn,Tom,Matt)

[Mr Munch88]

nope....I didnt think they would, but would be nice...,Jenn's too far away...and no car.

[Lilredridinghood]

Oh my goodness, J! I am so very sorry to hear that...I just read about it now, I've been away since Friday,and I just got back online. I think Jenn's been offline for a few days too....i'd be more than happy to bring Jenn to come visit you of course! I'll get in touch with her...

[Mr Munch88]

Thanks! If you have the time that would be great. I believe I'll be here thru at least tues. 6 central room 25. Burlington Lahey

[Mr Munch88]

It looks like I may be on the upswing! The Dr. just came in and said Wed/Thurs discharge. Sounds good to me. Everything looks goodl

[CEC3066]

I bet it will be nice to be back in your own bed.

[Shiney Happy Jenn]

J!! Holy crud man....Kerry came by my workplace today and told what happened to you! Ahhh!! I'm so glad you are okay now..that was a very scary experience to go through for you!

Tomorrow Kerry and I are coming to visit...and we are bringing Chuck E. with us! ( lol..)

No seriously...Kerry and I will be over sometime later tomorrow. Turns out i get out around 3 instead of 5:30...so we should be arriving earlier then expected.

Wow...i'm really glad things are looking better. Just keep a cool head and everything will be fine!

See you tomorrow!

[Mr Munch88]

Cool... looking forward to it. Thanks board for allowing me to vent here. Its looking like a tough recovery ahead. If any of you (god forgid) end up in the hospital, remember to buzz the nurses and tell them EVERYTHING you intend to do, before you do it. I would hate to think what would of happened if she hadent been in here when I fainted.

[Mr Munch88]

Well Kerry & Jenn just left.
what a nice visit. They brought me a plush Chuck and a mylar Chuck head balloon. They were here for about an hour. My health is getting a bit better. The binder is irritating me, but the pain is better. I should be going home tomorow... cant wait!
I was up walking today. I look like a 90 year old hobbling down the hall.
Sat up for a few hours today.
Ill keep ya posted!

[captslappy]

Excellent. See you'll be back to making balloon animals and squirting kids in the face with a flower in no time! :rollin

[Lilredridinghood]

Hi J,
Jenn and I had such a nice visit too-we where so happy to see that your doing better now, and I really hope you get to go home tomorrow! Do keep us updated!

[CEC3066]

If any of you (god forgid) end up in the hospital, remember to buzz the nurses and tell them EVERYTHING you intend to do, before you do it. I would hate to think what would of happened if she hadent been in here when I fainted.

one thing though J you didn't PLAN to faint, it just happened.

[Mr Munch88]

Yes, but if I had'nt needed to get up in the 1st place, it never would of happened.

[CEC3066]

true.

[Mr Munch88]

Ok, its 3am and Im awake how bad is that? Is been like this every night. I also see Im not the only one on line...
Im feeling good right now. No pain as long as I lay still.

[Mr Munch88]

Its now 2pm and Im headed home! I'll be there after 3:30 today for anyone that may want to stop by or call.

[dheineCECfan]

Glad you had another sucessful surgery, MrMunch88!
