Headed back to the Er

[sam-HILO]

Having abd pain for some hrs. Just can,t make it until my apt. on Jan 31st. with my new surgeon. Not exactly new,had surgery with him in 2004. My old surgeon insisted I had to come into the office in order to be able to schedule surgery. Pile of garbage after he saw me for a total of six days while he had me admitted to the hospital. Prayers appreciated!!

Update:A real crazy turn of events thus far.My mom's "new" surgeon had a death in the family,so he left town to attend the funeral and the surgeon my mom had before is doing the surgery tomorrow afternoon(she's still in the ER).At least that problem will be out of the way,my mom still has to re-schedule her left shoulder surgery most likely sometime next month.Also my dad is almost done remodeling the trailer!He just has some minor patching and clean-up to do.

That lady sure has had problems, hopefully she is in the home stretch with the doctors. I wish her well and to get well.

90 Classic restoration,Home from the Hosp.

The long story short with out a lot of details. I spent thirteen days in the hospital. The longest stay ever. The surgery went well. He only found another not so great mushy area in another part of the abdomen. Just about as he was ready to send me home I developed a Huge extremely painful bowel obstruction in the mushy part of the abd. It was touch and go if he was going to have to open me up again and the fix the problem. I improved enough that surgery was canceled. Pretty scary when morphine barely touches the pain. Any way thanks for all the prayers. I surely needed them and benefited from my pastoral care from the Sisters. However being a Nurse I know the reality of my situation is the that the problem will happen again and the surgery will take priority. I knew I had a growth on my thyroid and had a sonogram while I was in. I must have my thyroid removed when I am healed up. Then when all this over I can have the bursitus/shouldery surgery. It will probably be about summer time and I will put all this behind me and enjoy our completed HiLo restoration!!!! Kepp e in yours prayers for a speedy recovery. My daughter,Melissa posted for me while I was in the Hosp.

90 HiLo Classic restoration

While I was in the Hospital Hubby was able to complete th restoation. He had enough drops the panel the bottom half of the BR. Just had to order another roll of seam tape. I haven,t been able to see the completed work. I wanted to do a final clean up and take pictures, This will wait until the spring as it is in the diwn position and the battery is taken out. He just has to remove some more things from the garage and do a good clean up with the shop vac. This worked out timewise as he will be able to keep the housework up as I recooperate. Final words on the Restoration. It always takes longer than you think,more money ande materials. AQnyone doing this should plan on loosing the use of the HiLo for the better part of the season. Didn't exactly keep track of expenses,maybe $1,000. Looks brand new again. Now onto the twenty things on the household fit it list.!!!
