My wife is about to be wheeled into surgery. Goodbye poxy uterus!
 
Fingers crossed and positive thoughts headed your way.
 
We threw mine's in the garbage a while back.

Morris, you're real handy guy but there are some things we shouldn't try to epoxy. :yesnod: Glad to see you're letting the pros handle it now. :thumbsup:
 
No no Kellysguy. JPWeld, fixes most anything.

Best Morris. chin up.

Prayers are with your wife...and you as you will be her support and help for a while.

BTW...we talked about it some (ok, a long) time ago. You and I need to get together some time to swap lies... Once she is back online and I get back home in Austin, we could try to meet up, or you could come out to my place. I have a new shop with an icebox and beer.

If you you or someone else in the area wants to try and do a tech session to go through stuff, I don't mind hosting...

Since I am out on the way to Dripping Springs, if people wanted to, we could go running through the hill country, terrorizing all the neighborhoods looking for beer and BBQ!

I can't over emphisize that enough. I hope you're a light sleeper. She's gonna be in a lot of pain.
 
She is out of surgery and doing well. Thanks of the moral support!
 
Any time bud. Treat her with tenderness, she has earned it.

Errrr JB weld -but JP will pray. Glad to hear she's on this side of the surgery.
 
I had to sleep in the hospital hall just outside her room sitting indian style. The "person" in the room w/ her made the staff kick me out because, "There was a man in there". The staff split in the middle of the night constantly w/ no one to take care of her. It was all left on me. There was no one there to help her to the bathroom or anything. She had trouble calling out to me so I'd wake up at the slightest sound....which was quite often.

After a day or two they kicked me out of the hall into the "waiting area" just across from her. I got even less sleep there as I had to turn me noise filter completely off. I'd wake at the slightest sound. Folks kept comming in and turning on the lights too. Same thing when we got home. She had trouble talking and I had to help her anytime she moved.

All of this happened two weeks before Katrina. I had been at DEFCON 5 for two months not knowing if it was cancer or not. Needless to say the whole ordeal wasn't a pleasant experience.

I'm not trying to spook you. Just watch theses suckers and pay attention to what's going on when you can.

Don't be bashful about stepping in if they are slacking. That's what they get paid for. If someone loses their job because they slacked off, so be it. There's some things that gnaw at a man worse than getting somebody fired.

Glad to hear this and best wishes! Do everything you can to give her plenty of R&R plus emotional support.

I spent all of yesterday in the Princeton University hospital, but I was waiting for my second grand child to be born. Our circumstance was all very "text book" and everything went well (Mom, baby, Dad and little sister doing well....GrandPa and Granny happy but exhausted!)
 
Billy, I am glad you came out the other side of that one in one piece. You are a very good man.
