Was getting ready this weekend to head to Arizona on Monday to visit Tom and Darlene when life intervened. Saturday night I had to have an emergency hernia operation. I've never had a hernia before, and this one was so unexpected. It became an emergency situation when they could not reduce it....by reduce I mean they could not push my bowel back into place meaning that they had to operate or the bowel would start dying from lack of blood flow. Fortunately I only lost a quarter size piece of bowel, and everything is healing nicely. I'm now home and on the mend, but will not be leaving Rancho Jurupa Regional Park for a couple of weeks. Thank you to all those who sent encouraging words and thoughts my way!
Wow!! Sorry to hear that. It is amazing how things can go terribly wrong so quickly. We often forget to be thankful that MOST of the time we do have our health.
Get well soon!!
Clarke good to hear you are better and healing. Just for your troubles I am going to spit shine that bumper I have stored for you in my basement.

Our prayers for a speedy recovery
By the way, don't forget to save that bedpan
Should work great when changing the oil on your bug!!
Clark,
Glad to hear you are on the mend.
Cheers,

Our thoughts & prayers are with you for a speedy & full recovery.
Sorry to hear about the hernia Clarke but it looks like you were fortunate. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
Clarke, I feel your pain.....been there!
Clark, am so glad you all caught this and that you are on the mend... please stay hydrated and your insides will come back to life in no time...
My prayers are with you for a speedy recovery.

Fortunately for me I have a very "low" threshold of pain.......the intense pain sent me to the hospital....I am not one to run to the doctor. When something is terribly wrong I know what to do, and don't waste any time.
