    This coming week going to finish what was started back then , another colonoscopy (complete this time) and remove this bag from my side, hook up my plumbing again ... The Doctor said this should be a piece of cake compared to what took place up till now , just got to get used to laying in the hospital for another 5 to 7 days to make sure its all working and no leaks ... I will be glad to put this behind me and move on with my life, that's for sure ... Thanks to all for your thoughts and concerns, I will keep you all posted after this last go round is done ... WPT ... (YAC) ...

    P.S. Don glad your getting better , you have been in our prayers ... My wife still wears and loves that watch I got from you a long time ago ...

    Back home until tomorrow, the colonoscopy went well, nothing to be concerned about based on this Doctors findings ... Tomorrow AM (6AM) have to be back to the hospital for the rest of the procedure (8AM), probably be in there for 5 to 7 days to recover according to the Doctor today who is going to assist my Surgeon tomorrow ... If all goes as well tomorrow, piece of cake would be putting it mildly ... I may not be online for a week or so but will give up dates once I get out or give my Buddy GLS a call when I feel up to it ... Feeling positive, so far , so good ... Thanks again WPT ... (YAC) ...

    Thanks for asking Larry, been feeling a little better each day, so that's a good thing ... Pains have subsided considerably, able to get some sleep (finally) feeling much better about the future ... Thanks to each and everyone who inquired and were concerned, feeling better, just happening slow which I am not used to but it is what it is ... Getting my appetite back and everything seems to be working as of right now .. Thank you all again ... God Bless ... WPT ... (YAC) ...

    Rog, I quit bowling when I blew the valve out of my heart back in 2011, then the open heart surgery and never went back , looking forward to going shooting, need to get some strength back so I can lift the gun, and I am married no more chasing for me can't afford it ... WPT ... (YAC) ...

    Being at home and recuperating as you are you could suggest to your wife that there are some exercises your "therapist" has suggested for a speedier more complete recovery and she is involved........... Larry

    Got a Doctors appt Tuesday (03-14-17) so have to see what he says ... Healing very well but still some lingering pain they say is normal when you do a surgery on top of a surgery so the muscle don't really get a chance to heal then starts all over again ... I 'm feeling reasonably good about this right now, will see what the future brings ..

    Roger,
    I'll know more after I talk to the Surgeon on Tuesday , feeling a little bit better each day ... Now, I know how a Christmas Goose feels ... WPT ... (YAC) ...

    I sincerely thank everyone for your thoughts and concerns, helps to make you feel a little better knowing people are with you ... I am feeling a little better each day, walking my dog again which was a major concern on my part but some how he understood ... I hope to get cleared so I can start doing something to get some strength back which will help me feel better about my self ...Appetite is as good as I want it to get, do not need all that extra weight to carry around any more ... Thank you all again Much appreciated ... WPT ... (YAC) ...

    The Doctor said everything looks good, tired and weak are just part of multiple surgeries and should slowly get better ... The wounds look great according to the Doctor, thanks to my wife for playing Nurse and keeping the dressings clean and sterile ... I'm feeling a little better each day so that's a good thing, as well as getting my appetite back the goal now is to keep my weight at a healthy level, so thats something I will be working on ... Thank you all again for your Prayers , thoughts, and concerns, looks like I'm going to make it this time again ... WPT ... (YAC) ...
