It's a somber day at PaidinSunshine headquarters while we wait to hear how our Number 1 Commenter and Blog Follower, Halk-Kar, is doing. After a bout with "sludge," painful gall-stones and spiking fevers, he spent the night in the ICU and is headed to the gall bladder removal zone shortly, where he will find good company in one of our other blog fans, RabbittheCat's gall bladder-free Amanda.
Of course, after learning that Dave is doing fairly well this morning and is stabilized for surgery, my first thought was: I wonder how the loss of his gall bladder will affect Halk-Kar's super powers, and also will there be an obvious hole where once a vital organ lay?
Super-powers or no, we just hope you recover safely and quickly, Dave! Everyone here in the blogosphere is thinking of you and wishing you health and longevity.

we are all eager for Dave's return as his comments add a level of interest to the Paid in Sunshine daily blogs! Get well soon, super guy!

What are you trying to say, Mom? That PaidinSunshine is boring without Dave? Hrpmh! ;-)
ReplyDeleteNothing boring about it...
ReplyDeletejust adds an additional teaspoon of spice :)

All the best to Dave. While he's in "the shop" might as well have other minor organs removed as well. Suggest tonsils and appendix to start...
ReplyDeleteTo a speedy recovery!
Thanks everyone. He's doing quite well this morning, catheter was removed, enjoyed some broth for breakfast and even took a short walk. Just waiting now to figure out what "life threatening" infection is to give him the right antibiotics and then figure out when to take out the GB. Keep the positve thoughts and prayers coming.

Thanks for the kind words and good thoughts. I'm back on my feet, now, after over a week in the hospital. I must say, I was well cared-for at Bryn Mawr Hospital, but I am soooo glad to be back home.
ReplyDeleteBTW, in the picture of "bearded Dave" with Ben, I look like an entrant in the Papa Hemmingway look-alike contest.
