Non-football related stuff that really makes your day

I take it they had to do it the old fashioned style and not laproscopy eh, Sharkey?

[Islair]

Hoping all is well for you, SB and you attend that tailgate with NO pain.

Congrats, Islair. Question though, (because I'm a nosey bstd)....., if Minn is your home state, why not the Vikings?

I tried being a Viking fan, I really did, but that team sucks.

No, Mark, they did Lap ..... was a lot more trouble than the doctor expected, had a total of six hernias, repair area was so large, he needed to sew 2 mesh's together, required 16 incisions, and had little muscle tissue to work with on the right lower abdomin. He thought it might take an hour or so, but I was in there three hours. I got to see everything on a post-op sonogram and I think a majority of my pain is stemming from several large internal hematomas. Once they have time to heal I think I will be just fine. He really did pretty good work. I am still in the woods but there is a clearing just ahead.

Yowsers! Talk about bustin a gut!

Holy shit, SB......, that sounds like it was a big op, bud. If you are up and strolling about for the bears game, then you've done bloody fantastic.

Islair....... It's the purple isn't it? It's fucking HORRIBLE man. Several years ago, Hibernian decided to design the away shirt in purple. I wrote a long letter to the club chairman. In summary, I said, "What....... The fuck?"

That sounds pretty rough, SB. Glad it all went well though, and I hope you're feeling better before the forum game!

I set a goal to walk a mile today, wasn't easy but mission accomplished. Doubling up on the pain meds tonight, but dammit, this ain't beating me.

[LionsFanInJapan]

Dang, my hat off to you sir. That's impressive.

[Sharkbait]

Thx, wasn,t all that hard, I have walked 3 miles a day since june, and I know walking is the best thing I can do to combat this.

Dagnabbit, Sharkbait......, you are inspirational, buddy. I know a few people who would benefit greatly from reading your posts. Keep up the good work. Praying for a Bears win on the 29th.

Way to go Shark. 1 mile and counting.

[Malto Marko]

Nothing can keep a good man down.

Keep on keeping on, Sharkey.

Thx, guys. My mother went through 10 times worse than I have ever seen, and never once complained about her situation. I remember her telling me as a small boy that no matter how bad things got, someone always was worse off. She also said, nothin' ever fixes itself, you got to do something. Just find the right thing to do.
