Okay, first - the REALLY good news!   As many of you may remember, I spent pretty much the entire month of May in the hospital dealing with a pretty ugly case of bacterial meningitis.  I nearly died.   One of the results of having been that sick, is my heart went back into a-fib, like it did from the anesthesia when I had my gastric bypass surgery.  They did a cardioversion and corrected it then, but being sick put me back into a-fib. I went to the cardiologist yesterday, and my heart is back into a normal rhythm!  Yeehaw!! Plus - I had to walk with a cane for the first few weeks after being sick and being bed-bound for nearly a month, but I don't need the cane anymore.  My balance and leg strength have pretty much returned. PLUS - I was able to be weighed in on the silly scales at the doctor's office that have a limit of 350 lbs for the first time. PLUS - I was able to lay down on the little half-bed thing they have in the exam rooms.   PLUS - I can cross my legs for pretty much the first time EVER. Can you smell the success?  FARTing everywhere!!

I'm so glad that you are doing better, and It's the little things that we as losers notice that "normal" people take for granted that we find absolutly fantastic. This  is a huge F.A.R.T.

Gee Dave, can you stop.  I can hardly breathe in here because of all of the FARTs.  Way to rip...and way to go.  That is terrific news. Blessings, Greg

Way to go Dave!  Nice FART man! As flopeye said, these little things people take for granted are the things that we look forward to, and mean so much.  Me, I'm looking forward to tying my shoes without proping my foot up on a chair and dislocating my shoulder.. LOL. Dale
