Anyone want some of my bad luck?
 

Wellll, if losing Ginny yesterday was not bad enough, I had to go to the ER with chest pains this AM. Thought it was stress related, but turns out my gall bladder is shot and is prolly going to have to come out pronto. Geez life is swell!

best of luck to you

UBG went into the hospital this morning
 

Hey everyone. Bob called me this morning and wanted me to let everyone know he checked himself into the hospital this morning. He was having chest pains and shortness of breath. He mentioned he had a heart attack but they are checking him out at Somerset Medical Center. I told him to keep in touch if he needed anything.

Rest up UBG. I just made another thread and saw this one.

Damn Bob, so sorry to hear.

everything tends to balance out in time

I'm sorry for your loss Bob.

Take care of yourself, an uncooperative gall bladder is just about the last thing you need...

i hope bob ok

wow poor ubg..i hope he feels better soon!!

Hang in there Bob!

in my thoughts and prayers Bob

Hang in there buddy. So sorry for you loss and I'm hoping for a quick recovery.

HUGE props to Wild Billy T for stopping by to see me, and for bringing me some cool reading material and some awesome beef jerky. Right now Im reading the new Hot Rod, and once Im cleared to eat that jerky is gonna git gone!

The surgery went well, and the doc said the gall bladder def needed to come out, so the right call was made. I have nothing but great things to say about the staff here at Somerset Hospital. The overnight nurse was especially nice, and she spent a good chunk of time helping me deal with my loss of Ginny when I was having a rough moment.

I should be realeased today so life must go on

Good to hear. Get well soon and Happy Birthday.

Thanks, chief. Wow, Im an old fert! Lol

Get well soon!!! You are in my thoughts and prayers...

damn quick and easy. glad to see you got some maintenance done on the old chassis there. if we ever cross paths some day in the future theres a beer mug with your name on it.

Not a problem at all, dude. Glad you're doing OK after the surgery.

Very sorry for you loss Bob, but glad to hear that your surgery went well.

A visit from WBT made things better!? I'm confused. I've met the guy, and that just sounds like more bad luck if you ask me :shrug:










:lol: Joking, of course.

Glad the staff treated you right, the right call was made, and that you're getting out of there quickly. Here's to a speedy recovery, and digging into that beef jerky!

So, gotta ask...

How much weight reduction is the gall bladder delete?

Not much it seems. But I think it is a primer, as my appetite is nill. I had half a turkey burger and half a baked potato for dinner last night and I was satisfied. Doc said no working out for 6 weeks, so guess Ill just cut down with diet and start over.

The Wild One showed up dressed in a suit, and my first thoughts were either he is a bouncer come to throw me out of the hospital, or someone thought I needed a bodyguard!

Bob,

You are a true gentleman for not mentioning that I was wearking a pink shirt.

LOL

:mrgreen:

It was a nice shirt. It is October after all
