Good morning all... Smiley

Not looking forward to tomorrow, will be glad when it is all over... Tongue

This time tomorrow I shall be waiting in the Operating Room for them to finish the second operation for Kidney Stones.

At my age the first operation two weeks or so ago kept me in pain for three days, hope this one goes a little smoother.

May not be on line for a day or two but no worries, I shall be back to annoy you lot shortly...... Grin

Have a great day... Smiley

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Hope that things go well. 

While the surgery may not be the most pleasant thing in the world to go thru... keep in mind the alternative and what that would be like.

Thinking about ya'.

best,

My friend said her second operation was much better, she knew better about coping with the pain and general recovery. Hope the same goes to you. Smiley

Not exactly what's meant by 'no pain, no gain'...
A few days in such case may seem much longer but keep in mind the relief when it's over.

In the Marines we say "pain is weakness leaving the body."  So we can expect you to be the toughest SoB here come thursday morning right?

Good afternoon all... Smiley

Well been home for about a hour, the old girl is fussing and mothering me.

The operation went as expected and I have a prescription for the pain, four pills plus the antibiotic pill.

Will have to take the pain pills shortly as the morphine  and whatever else they gave me is starting to wear off.

They were absolutely wonderful again at the hospital and thank goodness for Canadian Health Care.

Thank you all for the Well Wishes and Larry "Patchz" sent me/everyone a link to the Bell 47 in one of his posts so I think trying to fly that will help take the old grey matter off of my pain along with reading and looking at the pictures you all post... Smiley    Wink

Thanks again folks and have a great day... Smiley

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Welcome back Doug!! Cheesy

Nice that you're fine ,careful on the morphine ,ask your doc about Codeine which is the same but less addictive..

Now take a rest...you're under medication ,Also be carefull of what you said, those pain killers makes talk more than you don't want too  Grin
