My projected return to work, life and riding is 4/9/12. Hopefully there will still be some mushrooms left in the woods when I can finally hunt them. Just walked out to the mailbox in my pajama pants with my leg sucker (wound vac) over my shoulder. Gotta admit, I think it's starting to change my self image.  Maybe I shoulda' thrown my riding jacket on.  Grin

If you decide to be even more risque, please do be kind to the visual people in our midst.

Get well, soon, Mike.  Make sure the doctor is taking that infection very seriously.

Don't screw around, Joseph.  If the doctor wants you to go to the hospital then get your butt to the hospital.  The risk may be small,  but the penalty is too high.

Yep, I've been assimilated. Resistance is futile. Funny, that's exactly what I was thinking of as I walked out with the damn thing attached.

I noticed some traffic stopping as I walked out. Guess they were just enjoying the EYECANDY.  Grin

The infection thing scares the crap out of me. He seems to be a good doc, he apologized and he's takin' it serious. I researched the Doc before I went to him, he's well recommended by everyone and I'd recommend him.

Everything and everybody looked clean as did the operating room when they wheeled me in, and beleive me I even looked for blood splatters on the ceiling. IV antibiotics before and during the surgery. 10 days or so of Keflex afterwards, I did everything I was supposed to and nothing I shouldn't and the germs still got me. Seems to just be soft tissue and not the bone thankfully.

My helper at work is working 12 hour days 5 days a week while I'm off and I'm feeling bad about it but not much I can do besides some phone advice and a "thanks and sorry about this" a few times a week.  Embarrassed

But I've got it way better than many of our members do right now and I feel lucky it's not way worse.

Hey, since I retired, I go to the mailbox in my plaid PJ pants all the time.  

People laugh and point.... but I know they're just jealous, on their way to work.

Please get well buddy.

Hey both of you guys get well soon and listen to what the Doc has to say we have a lot of riding to do together.  My new doctor has but me on a blood pressure pill nothing serious yet says  it will help my kidneys get rid of the extra protein since I am a diabetic
Hey Mike, since I retired, I go to the mailbox in my plaid PJ pants also.
no one is laughing or pointing heck I live so far out in the sticks no one is around. I have notice that the brids sure start singing a lot louder. Think they might be laughing heck they may be jealous cause they still have to hunt for food and I don't.
both of you Please get well and we will see you soon  cooldude
