Title: Busy doing F A
Post by: bfit on January 19, 2013, 01:56:08 PM

Sitting in St Vincent's
An exciting time , learning  new things
my prostrat is off to some pathology department
To do their  bit
Of all things the OP is done using a robot
it's unbelive how good one fells after a major operation
 Up and romping  around the day after is amazing

Thank to all those who passed on well wishes
I have to say its an OD way to loose a half a kg
All you males over 40 get the blood test ever birthday
Cheap insurance
Jethro thanks for keeping amused last night

Speedy recovery Bfit and hope the results are all clear.

The older we get we have to look forward to PSA blood tests, prostate examinations and colonoscopy,s.... Doesn't get much better than that.

Day two post op
All good!
out of here this afternoon
I wander if I am allowed to drive home
I had better ask

There are a few new feelings to deal With
And already some things are better
The only thing that is down in this hiccup in life is the bank account

Thank you

Day four post op
I am quite surprised at the lack of pain and only a slight felling of discomfort when I sneeze
After this quit invasive operation.
As of the 30th I will be back to a reasonable normal suituation .

We will make the dicison on Nelson Bay in the week before.

For the moment I am bored stiff cant go to work and can not take advantage of the time Im am having at home
Maureen is running around like a blue ass fly looking after me
And stile running things at work
Normally time flys by, at the moment it dragging .

There are quit a lot to content with as yet
The commonly known consequences that are side effectors of the operation,
Can present to me difficult
I am looking forward to getting on top of those difficulties

Bob..your a lucky guy... its NOT an illness you would wish on anybody.. and unfortunately  the operation.. by machine.. is the best when viable.. and VERY Expensive.. many just can't afford it....
   I hope you have a speedy and comfortable recovery & can continue to look after your loved ones..

Thanks Dave
Your not wrong about the costs
There was 4 other guys in the ward the day I got there and two more
The following day
It's unbelievable what they can do

I am taking this as just another life challenge
My moto has always been
What ever happens
If it does not kill you it will make you stronger
