    Back in the game!!!!

    After some medical issues with my daughter again, all is ok, and umbilical hernia surgery for myself I am finally getting back into the swing of things. I am limited to what I can pick up but within a couple of weeks should be back to normal. Have to get caught up with some changes I see here, looks like Admin has been tweaking the forum a bit.

    I also had the same operation. Do take the time to recover and don't forget that you can cause it to come back again. Mike

    BC glad to hear daughter and you are doing better. I'm learning as I get older I can't keep working 12 & 16 hour days six days a week. I think we all (most) push ourselves more than we should. With things the way they are lets face it we almost have too! My GF & Mom have been pushing me to go get a physical. At the age of 56 I should have long ago and now my Insurance company is demanding it. A little afraid of seeing a doctor, I make sure family gets there, but I have always stayed away from the Docs. Anyway good to have you back.

    Glad you're on the mend. Will keep you in our prayers.

    Must be something in the water these days as a lot of us are having a tough year medically. Two months ago I had emergency surgery for ruptured appendix. In hospital for 5 days, out for 2 and back in for 6 more due to complications. Then 2 more weeks on high powered antibiotics which killed the bacteria and also my strength. After 6 weeks on limited lifting I was finally getting going again and pow! Back in hospital with irregular heartbeat - otherwise known as A-fib. Still dealing with it but trying to keep going. Haven't spent this much time in the hospital in my life.
