Our Touring Past

Hi Humpyboy
Try and take your mind off of the pending operation and have a great xmas with family and friends.
I am sure the docs will get things sorted for you in the new year.
Stay strong .. stay positive... mental attitude is half the cure.

Cheers
Reddo and family

Thanks for the well wishes guys, not concerned or worried about what is to come my way other than the recovery which will be shite but then what choice do I have?

Well it's all out now and all the staff and even my surgeon are surprised at how well I have bounced back, I have been sitting up in the chair for quite a while and have been up and about walking also so everything is going well thus far, tomorrow we do X-Rays while I drink a contrast to see if the join is leaking if not we go onto fluids for a few days before working my way up to more solid foods, so it's all good for now.

Hi Humpy.
Iam not sure what your doing but keep it up, as the recovery looks as though its going well.
Cheers.

I reckon its all that vin van fodder Humpys been munching on.Either that or theres more to what he`s been telling us he puts in the water tank.

G'day everyone, day 8 and I'm leaps and bounds ahead, only one drain tube left in my back which comes out tomorrow and am now on a puréed diet, walking is now up to 12 laps at a time but only coz I'm bored shite less, should be home sometime next week not sure just yet but they are all very happy with my progress, not much else I can do for now.

Looks like they are sick of having me here, gunna get kicked out tomorrow.

You did get the nurses number didn`t you? Good on you Humpy its been a bit nail biting even for us hearing what you went through. cheers gordon

Well I'm home now, still a bit sore where he opened me up with his Makita power saw but I think I'll get over it, I had so many tubes on my person I looked like a walking plumbers outlet and I can tell you I don't miss them one bit, I hope now that it all settles down nicely and I can get on with my life, or whats left of it

Attaboy Humps.....Ya can see the light at the end of the tunnel.....
Just make sure it isn't a train coming at you..
Get well soon buddy.
Reddo
