Speaking of which, the've started putting tiles back up on the mosaic of hope, and have asked me help decorate one. That sould like it could be fun! If I do - I'll post a couple of photos.

Appendix Gone
Tuesday night's surgery was quick, and as far as I could tell, uneventful. The appendix was removed using a lathroscopic procedure. By the next morning the fever and chills which had mysteriously plagued me for the better part of a week had subsided. I'm still recovering from the discomfort of the surgery, but expect to be back to normal any day now. Thanks to all of you for your prayers and wishes of good health. Right now I'm just happy to be rid of that fever and chills. I think I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

patrick! your smile and humor (and now your appendix) are crazy missed around here! i hope recovery is going well for you and you get all the fluids you're needing. :o)
ReplyDeleteI think the appendix is highly overrated, so you shouldn't miss it. If it were important, it would have a more dignified name like "central organ" or "chief catalyst". On the serious side, we think of you daily and wish you were back with us.
ReplyDeletepatrick - I think of you every day and am rooting for your going home date. Hope you are feeling lots better - damn extraneous organs!! Can't wait to see you this summer.
