Holding good thoughts for you. There's to many stories you need to tell us before your get all feeble on us. Glad to hear you're doing better. | ||
| Prior |
Get better soon Court! We're thinking about you! | ||

Well Up, you old Devil Dog! | ||
| Sparky |
Get well soon, Court! When I read that you were in ICU, all I could think of was God save BadWeB's 'Moral Compass'. We need you and Erik to guide us along Life's Twisty Roads as it were, especially in these times. | ||

Anytime you need more defecation, just give us a call. | ||

It's always a good idea to thumb your nose at the Grimm Reaper. 'Glad you're on the mend. I'm posting a little story about mortality and football on the "Not so Rude Joke" thread in your honor. | ||

JEEZ!! I get real busy, schedule goes nuts, and I'm away from the BW for a while and you schmo's go and do ALL kinds of crazy stuff! What am I gonna do with ya'all? So, Court... I guess that ride up to Newcomb's for a burger next time you're out on the left coast is gonna get delayed a week or 2? Feel better SOON. DO NOT let them foist any psychiatric meds on you, even though they'll think you need 'em. (Hell, probably most people would think you need them!) The stuff won't help and it'll frog up your guitar playing. Glad to hear you're still with us. Al, near the kid, in LA | ||

I went down with the dreaded appendix while on vacation with the family a few years back. The surgeon told me I'd been extremely lucky as it was on the point of bursting when they removed it. He also told me that over age 40 you've a 50% chance of complications, I was badly infected & back in hospital being drained within a fortnight. Do please take care and don't be too proud to get help, you're not doing yourself any favours playing tough guy, just prolonging and worsening the problem. Get well soon. | ||

Sorry to hear of your illness Court, wish you a speedy recovery and return to the world outside. | ||

Happy to hear your feeling better Court. There's nothing wrong with a little down time. | ||
| Court |
Thanks to all . . . and I count those of you here among family . . of you for your support through all of this. I just did a long walk down Madison and am feeling great. :-) | ||
| Ourdee |
No picture it didn't happen. Show me a smiling face to help me get the other pic out of my mind. | ||

I just did a long walk down Madison and am feeling great This is what you have to be careful with. I went through similar issues and found that "feeling great" can mean feeling 60% better than you have been, not necessarily totally recovered. I did not know exactly how this worked until I thought I was 100% back from a long term, slow coming on, nasty internal infection. I was so sick for such a long while that when I was actually only at about 60% recovered, because I was feeling sooo much better than the several weeks before, I started doing normal stuff too early and delayed my actual recovery time by even more weeks. Please.....NO pictures!  Save the photography for the next time you throw a leg over a Buell Motorcycle to go out to capture more of those great images of the neighborhood. | ||

Thanks Vern. Court, After congestive heart failure, the Doc told me, I would not know how bad I was till I started recovering. He was right. We help pay off student loans for other people because we didn't study the courses they did. Help pay off the doctor's loans and don't waste the money. It took a few tries on my part, but I listen to the Docs now. You were sounding so upbeat I didn't want to preach "Doctor's Orders" to you. Please, Do your part in the demonstration of patience and due diligence to regain your health. You are a tough ole bird and can muscle through a lot. Sometimes the softer road needs to be rode to our benefit. Still praying for you. | ||
| Rkc00 |
Court. Let's get together soon | ||
| Court |
I would love that . . . . Let me know and I'd be thrilled to head your way . . . | ||
| Etennuly |
Ray, If Court would send up a picture of his smiling face I'm more than good with that! Probably just me, but I don't want to see pictures of raw skin zippers.....  Court it is so good to hear you are up and about. | ||
| Court |
Hahahaha . . . I'd, perhaps in a moment of poor judgement . . . sent RD a photo that was snapped on the tail end of 7 days of ICU . . . think Nick Nolte mugshot. RD may not be right for a while. I'm doing well . . . continuing to drop weight . . . walking a lot and am pretty much trying to stick to a 70% schedule,. Did 7 miles of hiking at Ward Pound Reservation yesterday and am diligently trying to reach one of the Docs today to get some of these staples out. I may have to get RD covered on my health insurance . . . . :-) | ||

Ditto on taking enough time on recovery. Sounds like you & I have like attitude on hurting. The doctor asked me to rate the pain of congestive heart failure and I said 7. The heart attack I rated at 5. After finding out I do full contact martial arts and rated falling 40 feet a solid 8, he told me most folk rate a heart attack a 9-10...... and told me to just take the damn pills like a good boy. Once a year or so I bring a bottle of pain meds back, with one used and ask if they are still good..... the doctor knows I hate opiates and gives me the good stuff...... and I hardly ever use them because I'm a coward. Get better. Enjoy. | ||

..."think Nick Nolte mugshot. RD may not be right for a while." A good sense of humor is usually the best medicine, smiles always indicate good health! | ||

So glad to hear your up walking around! As has been mentioned a hundred times already, you can't leave until you tell us those stories!!  By the way, if the docs say you need a part they can't get, just send me a drawing of what they need. We've got a lot of stainless steel and teflon laying around, I'm sure we fabricate something up for you!  | ||

Heart attack kind of hurts. Septic knee hurt more. Three shots of morphine couldn't get in there, so I walked out of the hospital and made it home before I threw up. Gout is downright aggravating. All depends on being able to look at that part of your body and convince yourself that it is not you. That is how I can compartmentalize the picture that made Nick look pretty. Honored you considered it safe to share with me. Still praying. | ||
