|  To My MLS friends,
This is to let you all know that I have spent the last 9 days in the local hospital.
Was experiencing extreme tiredness, etc. I have a bit of a hart failure, Just came home yesterday afternoon. Got exactly no rest  last night.
Many pains, etc.
Prayers needed. The hospitals here are not the greatest but my totala $$for the stay was less than one night in the US. So a trade off. But much stays the same (food is terrable)
This is still my home away from home,

| Roland,
Hope you are feeling better. Sorry to hear about your hospital stay, but glad you are back home.
Nine days in a hospital is ten days too long. 'Specially for one of the good guys like you.
Please keep us posted. Hope to see you at next years BTS.

Our prayers are with you.
Hopefully you are able to eat that nice fresh "alive till you pick it out" fish you were telling me about.

| Best of luck!!
Definitely agree, a hospital stay, regardless of how long, is NO fun!!
Although, I gotta admit, while I was in, for 10 days, the food wasn't too bad!
Still, nothing beats a good home cooked meal!
Anyway, hope you're back in action in short order.

| UPDATE
had Dr apt today (Monday 22nd)
Taken off of infection meds.
Blood pressures normal (for me)
pluse rate still high (need to get under 100)
Blood suger still high but coming down.
So the Pneumonia seems to be doing ok. Now just need to get the old ticker stronger. Could hardly get up to my room after seening Dr.
Good part, I was able to get about 4hours sleep last night. and about one and a half this after noon.
Got absoultly no sleep on Fri night trying to find a position that wouldnt cause pain.
Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers.
Roland
P.S. Don't go back to Dr. for 4 weeks unless of another problem. | | | |

Life isn't a journey to the grave, intending on arriving safely in a pretty and well kept body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, loudly proclaiming,'Wow! Whata ride!
(Embracing the Dimside. Let the Farce be with you. Dimness is what you make of it. Make mine Dim.)
This could get interesting... | |
