Of course it's nice of Micheal to remind you of St Bartholomew, who I understand was flayed alive. Nice Mamba, that's bound to calm the man!

;s

He is going to the Seminary at my alma mater, studying to be a pastor. He's a little rough around the edges yet, needs to work on his bedside (pastoral visitation) manner. :r

I knew what he meant, that St. Bartholomew trusted God and was brought through his ordeal and now enjoys eternity in heaven, so it is all good no matter what happens - and if God can give him the strength in that trial, then my itty bitty ole neck surgery ain't nuttin'.

At least that is what I think he was trying to say. :)

Otherwise, he was just :gary

Peace of the Lord be with you.

No rhyme or reason, just is.

Five gallons, crap man I only have a few pints in me! ;)

Wishing you a speedy and complete recovery!

Sitting in a bed at the hospital post-op. Vicadin and water mean I am fairly comfortable. seem it will heal well. Now, we can only pray that the surgery does what we were hoping it would do. Doctor told me that this was not a "fusion" but a "disk decompression" - it was a reduction of bone material, and that I "could" take the meds that inhibit bone growth.

Hmmm, if the reason I was supposed to lay off cigars post surgery was because they inhibit bone growth, then...

Yeah, I am thinking I might have cigar sooner than I thought I would.

Thanks again for all the thoughts and prayers.

Peace of The Lord be with you.

UPDATE:

Been home since midday on Wednesday. Much of Wed. - Fri. is a bit blurry in my mind. I think I am noting improvement in the arm and hand. The pain is pretty much confined to the neck muscles they had to move around in order to get at the vertebrae and cut arthritis away.

Again, thanks for your thoughts and prayers, they are greatly appreciated.

Peace of The Lord be with you.
