Title: Surgery Monday and other totally random chit.
Post by: Rollingrock on June 26, 2022, 08:56:54 PM
Hey yall,

Just an FYI.  I have a surgery on Monday, check in at 8:30 am CST.   Could use some good vibes and prayers if you got em This should be the last hurdle for me this year.    No real idea on the recovery b/c it can go 1 of 2 ways.    Will keep you posted.


ON a totally separate note, I wanted to share this link.  If you click on this link and listen to the song called ChiChi (Which is my wife's family nick name) i had this song made for her for our 25th Anniversary.    We haven't posted it on Social Media yet b.c i am going to put it to a slide show for IG and her FB account

Check it out and i would highly recommend this service if you want to score some major points with your SO and family.

https://www.songfinch.com/artists/75181 (https://www.songfinch.com/artists/75181)

Song is called "ChiCHi". 

Cheers

JP

Good vibes heading your way! Best of luck on a speedy recovery! 

The song idea is very cool. I may steal the idea for Heather and my 20th in a couple years.

Good luck, Jason.  Positive thoughts your way as usual as you hopefully wrap this stuff up.

Gents, just coming up for air….surgery went good today, was in pre-opp for 2 hours then in the OR for 3 hours.  They had to Intubat me so speaking is very difficult right now, I can whisper but that is about it for a day or so.    Throat hurts and will have some interesting “movements” if you catch my drift.      Surgeon said he felt like he got it all but wants to scope me again in 3-6 months.    As I figured, I am off the bike for 7-10 days so I don’t risk pulling the stitches/staples and clamps out of my small intestine.   Very groggy and the most odd thing, I must of cramped while in the OR, my calves are so sore it is hard to walk.   I think I went in a little dehydrated.     Anywho, wanted to give you an update.   Thanks for checking in and sending good vibes.

Glad to hear everything went well JP! I wouldn't be in too much of a hurry to jump back on the bike. Then again, that advice is coming from a guy who never listens to doctor's orders. I was out running the snow blower 2 days after hernia surgery a few years ago.

Well boys spoke too soon.  Had to be rushed back to ER last night.   Almost bled out.   They had to transfer me back to another hospital.    Redid surgery and got admitted.    All good. Is but got very close to this going really bad fast.   

Some of my pieces of flair.

Hey guys,

I am alive.  If it wasn't for Mike, I wouldn't come back to check this thread that I don't remember posting.   No joke. 

I was pretty medicated and thought I was in a good place but again I had spoke too soon.   All good, for now, but still not 100%. 

Totally appreciate you guys posting back and reading, I didn't tell you all the half of it.   Not even sure when i posted b/c I seriously don't remember.   Things went sideways fast and boom, here I am.   

At home recovering, resting when I can and was working a little today.   Steve, our QTR end is next month and I went in to pure panic last night and started doing my expenses....ugh, that was dumb to. 

Anywho, i will post up again and give an update.   

almost  :dh: :uugly:

for sure funny and a little scary. Mike after our chat, I went to my work laptop and double checked to make sure I didn't send or respond to any threads.    I had a deal at Verizon that we were working on for the 30th, it came in but had to double check i didn't say anything stupid.

So last night, i did have a few cocktails and i ended up sleeping in till 11 am this morning.   Haven't slept in till 11 in probl 25 years.    Feel pretty rested.

Oh and btw, i haven't told anyone this yet but we are fostering 2 dogs right now and 1 of them has 3 puppies that are nursing.   So if my chit wasn't bad enough we added more chaos to the house.   

We are keeping the 2 foster dogs, and maybe 1 puppy.  Yeah we are dumb.

Good grief, could you add anything else to the pile of stress.

I have it bad enough with the end of qtr while getting end of foundation selections done; and I would not trade with you for anything.

Glad you got rested up and did not snatch defeat from the jaws of victory with any deals.

yeah dude, being a cyclist, the torso is pretty bare but arms and legs are fine.  I actually got a little color from yesterday.   But yes, i am very fair.     This has changed a lot over the years, when I was a kid, i would get very dark...i never wore a shirt as a kid, i was always at the pool or outside.

I never wore a shirt as a kid either.  Or shoes for that matter.  Then I got fat.  Haha. Working on that though.  That said though, you’re looking good!  But being a construction worker and working long hours, I’m outside for atleast 12 hours a day.  So I understand the tan completely.  I leave for Riveria Maya on Sunday (fingers crossed the flight doesn’t get cancelled) so I am going to fix that tan issue.  I will probably burn first though.
