    Dr_Pain post up your journey my friend

    Will do…. You guys convinced me!, and if only one of you gets convinced of the importance of early detection then my work won’t be wasted

    Dr_Pain that goes for not only early detection, but to place faith in Him where all things are possible.

      Good morning fellows! Today mark the first day that I am strong enough physically and psycho-emotionally to rejoin the electronic world. Most of November and December all (or most) of the communications were through my lovely wife. She was my rock through all of this.

      Glad to say that I am on the mend. It was definitely touch and go for a while, and on 3 separate occasions I truly thought that it was the end for me. Just writing about it brings a tear to my eye.

      To all of the “brothers” that send gifts and cards, I took the time to send you a private message. You guys absolutely rocks. To all that offered prayers, indirect support and best wishes, I owe you guys a debt of gratitude that can never be repaid. I believe in my heart of hearts that it is only by the Grace of God that I am still around. I am not sure how much stamina I will have to participate on the Community, but I am back.

      I do want to thank Waltons in this post more specifically Jonathon Austin and JohnG5 for the goodies. Jonathon coordinated with my wife a care package which came in just in time for me to have a nice gift on Christmas Day. I could not be more appreciative of a company and people that don’t know me reaching out in such a way.

      My biggest thank you though will have to be to Chef who DAILY checked on my status/progress and updated you guys. We’ve never met in person but did have a couple of telephone conversations, when I was strong enough, and it is uncanny that you could feel so invested in a friendship which started on a Community like Meatgistics.

      You guys ROCK!!! Thanks again for the show of support. I know a few of you are wondering the details of what really happened to me. I am an opened book so feel free to PM. If enough of you ask for the details I may make a PSA post. Although I am tempted to make the post right now I will wait to see the interest since it doe not really have to do with what we normally chat about on Meatgistics

        Dr_Pain Great to see you back. Looks like you have more to go through but you have proven you’re more than strong enough!
        Yes, would like to hear more.

        It is great to be back! My stamina is waning at the moment so I will be offline until later (or tomorrow). Better take small bites at the apple. The consensus (between you guys posting and PM’ing) is that I should share the adventure from hell so be on the lookout. Just know that all the love and prayers made a HUGE difference

          Dr_Pain Glad to “see” you again! Thought about you and your family often over the holidays. Glad you were able to be home for it. Looking forward to the potential PSA post.

                                Thank you Bob! It starts with baby steps, followed by more steady steps, followed by some jogging and finished by a nice little run. I am still in baby step mode. It is kinda overwhelming at times but I work the problem with all of your support and prayers of speedy recovery. I am looking at another surgery in a few months but should not be as bad as the second.

                                  Thanks Craig! Can’t wait to be back to my normal self. It is a long road but one that will never be finished if I don’t take each and every step seriously

                                    Thanks for the continued prayers. They do help! As the expression goes: An idle mind is the devil’s playground! Well the prayers help avoid most of that. It is incredible the number of times that the worse scenario plays in your help in those times

                                        Thanks! I do owe part of my recovery to you guys. It was heart warming to get PMs (even though I did not read them until recently…. I did get the notification my wife would tell me about), the cards and the calls. You guys rock!

                                          Dr_Pain It is great to have you back & better to hear that you are doing much better. We will be gladdest to hear that you have made a full recovery, but a little at a time is perfectly fine for now, so long as you are getting better.

                                          From where I was to where I am, I have to call it a miracle. I still have another surgery in my future but I do not anticipate that it will be as drastic and traumatic as the second one. Thanks for all the support
