I’m Still Alive

Feel like I got run over by a truck but I’m Still Kicking.

I’m groggy as hell, hurting am still in ICU

They are supposed to be moving me sometime later today to a regular room

They came up with a change of plans at the last minute and I was spared getting Shishkabobbed across the belly from one side to the other so that is good.

Maybe later I will be able to explain what they did.

Right now I’m doing good just typing this out on my phone

Thanks for the prayers and well wishes.

Aaaand I’m out again.

  1. Get better Phil. Spent some ICU time (six days) – there is a lot of beeping noises going on and blood draws are frequent. Makes getting out sweeter.

  2. Good to know you’re still with us, but stay off the webz for at least a day, we will still be here, and healing is not a minor concern right now.

  3. Outstanding! Take the opportunity to get some rest as best you can while there. I hope you have someone to wait on you once you are home. A tired old man needs his rest even more so after surgery.

  4. Yeah, you made it through the surgery. Don’t be in a hurry to be kicked out of ICU; they were the best beds in the joint I was in, and the staff will answer the call button lickety-split. Still praying for you, your medical team, and the wifely unit.

  5. I sure as hell wouldn’t be posting from the ICU a day after. You’re somethin’ else, bud. Thanks for the update, and glad to hear of the improved plan. Hope it gets some blood flowing.

  6. I used to joke with other guys under meds and on a pre-surgery gurney like me prior to surgery that we were like a bunch of used cars on the lot, waiting for a mechanic to fix us up for sale.

    Hope they laughed at that one!

  7. This is wonderful news. Take it easy for a bit and update us with the results when convenient. SOP for now is patience and rest. The miracle of healing has already begun!

  8. Glad to hear the docs worked their magic, I hope it’s a successful as you and they want. Focus on yourself, Phil, we’ll be here when you’re up and around.
