Frank,
Wonderful news for sure. Its sure better to get well in ones home as compared to the hospital, plus the extra RF floating off that antennas helps the cause as well.
A very Merry Chrismas to both you...

Hey guys, thanks for all of the support and best wishes. I am back home and kickin again. Friday night, I literally came within 1 inch of dying!! I stared projectile vommiting blood till I just about bled out by the time the paramedics got there. I remember the paramedics saying that they couldnt get any BP on me. That is all that I remember up until yesterday morning. I literally lost 5 days! ! ! ! ! ! After enduring many tests and a refill of fresh blood the general diagnosis seems to be that I have cirrhosis of the liver! ! Go figger, I have been clean, dry and sober for more than 26 years now! ! !  All of my love and best wishes to those that have offered their support to both myself and my wife through this ordeal. Please send your well wishes to Joe, as well as he needs some help hisself with some health issues. I will most likely be on the WFD net tonite as I desperately need a radio fix. I will be taking some time off from work for Dr's appointments and whatever. And would welcome any company or telefonium calls. I will see y'all on the aether this afternoon. Thank you ALL and God Bless! ! Best 73! ! ! ! the Slab Bacon! ! ! |

Frank said: I remember the paramedics saying that they couldnt get any BP on me. That's what happened to the XYL when she came out of her gastro-blockage surgery. The BP was so low, it couldn't support the veins for blood samples. Glad to know the 'Fat is still Shakin' I'm sure it will give you a whole different perspective on life. Merry Christmas my friend. I think you got the best present of all..... a reprieve.  |

Welcome home Frank- Hope you mend quickly and have a great holiday.
Last Christmas I had two family members in the hospital and it was an awful event.
Best to you and Carrol.

Frank, I agree. This is truly a Merry Christmas! May 2010 bring you lots of good fortune, even more good health, and a few BA's interspersed in there for good measure! |
