been gone a long time

I went to Yuma this year and spent 7 weeks. boy the price of gas going down and back was a lot. I haven't been on the forum since we left to go down there and it felt strange logging back in. almost forgot my log in password. My wife and I both spent time in the Yuma Hospital this year and it hasn't been much better back home. My wife has MS and she didn't do well down there. I found out I need hip surgery and they have to make sure my heart can stand the surgery. I went to the heart Dr and did the two tests and when I got back for the results I passed out in his office. well, found my self back in the hospital. now they want to do more tests. the pain is unbearable and the pain meds make me so sick. I am trying to get the garden in for this year and it is so bad I can only do about 5 minutes of work at a time. Well enough about my troubles, I have a lot of reading to get caught up on. take care all. God Bless.

  • Hi old guy, don't know if you remember me, I remember you. I sure hope everything goes well with this hip business. My prayers for you both.
  • Welcome home. Enjoy the fresh air and beautiful spring breezes. Just soak it in. I love coming back to Oregon after a long spell down south. Green is a welcome sight.
  • Sounds like the old adage "If it rains, it pours" and you're sure getting the deluge. Hope things smooth out some for you and the sun breaks through the clouds and shines on you and your wife in the very near future
