Forced R & R
 

Just got back from the eye surgeon and he tells me I need to take it easy for a few days. I had an unexpected tear in my retina and they hustled me in & took care of me this AM. He did a pneumatic retinopexy (sounds manly to me) and now I just need to heal up.

Get this... my wife asked the Dr, if could have my cigar and he said sure. :tu Just keep the eye covered and I will be able to enjoy one later this PM.

With the eye patch I get to "smoke like a pirate" :=:

Would appreciate any good thoughts from the crew here. Thanks.

My kind of Dr and good for your Wife asking! Take care of it and enjoy the side effects of relaxing and smoking!:tu

My dad had the same thing happen - a partial tear in the retina. They did the emergency repair and then it fully detached. He had that repaired too and everything is fine now - I tell you only to warn you to make sure you're careful and get back to the doc ASAP if anything seems funny (other than the fact that you're wearing a patch!).

Wahl shiver me stogies, matey, that's a hole in the hull, fer shore.

Sending lots of positive thoughts your way.

In the meantime, keep a parrot on your shoulder to complete the
Smokin Pirate look. A pair of high boots wouldn't hurt either, y'know. :ss
