rwantin: Best of luck to you Don. Of course all will be fine...


Thanks Robert! Tell your dad that I'll be off for a month and there's still fishing weather left - but I'll need help loading the canoe for a week or two! handshake

We definitely steered him in the right direction it would seem my friend. Every time I talk to him he's doing something, or planning on doing something. No bad thing at all. cheers

Keep the faith Kansan. Will be thinking about ya. Let us know how it goes.wave

Thanks Tom, K S - One or the other of us will keep ya posted.

Like I said before, I don't expect it to be a big deal. At the same time, even with all the injuries I've had over the years (and a few surgeries to fix 'em) this'll be the first time I've had anything inside my abdominal cavity that wasn't born there or swallowed, so I guess the nerves are finally starting to show just a bit. laugh

7 hours, 35 minutes to go! yay laugh

The_Kansan: I've mentioned this, more or less off-hand, a couple (ok about a hundred!) times lately, but here it is officially:

I'm going in, in a little less than 12 hours to get my darned ol' gallbladder yanked out so that I can finally (after 11 months!) start (and keep!) feeling better.

I'm not overly concerned - in fact, I'm looking forward to getting it over with - but several (wonderful, caring) members here have expressed concern and heartfelt well-wishes and I just wanted to take the time to say "Thank you, each and everyone, it really means quite a lot to me!"

I'd like to be nervous and I guess I probably should be and maybe I am just a little bit, but mostly I figure that it won't be a big deal and I'll be back on my feet in a day or two and back to work in about 3 weeks or a month.

In the mean time, you poor souls are liable to get awfully tired of me hanging around all the time.

So thanks again to everyone who's already wished me well and thanks in advance to anyone who bothers to respond to this. With friends and family like you guys, my convalescence should be an absolute breeze! (Not to mention a real hoot!)



...Don...

(A.K.A. The Kansan)

That's when the fight'll start! laugh First thing I put on in the morning is my hat - and it's the last thing I take off at night. cowboy

Actually I'm wearing a ball cap this morning - don't see that very often - and I don't even much like it, so I won't mind taking it off.laugh

'Mornin' Bob!wave See ya after while!
