Hiya dudes,
Didn't even notice I'd been gone did ya's
Long story short, I had been having niggling health issues for a while as most of you know.
The Medicos narrowed it down to most likely being Gall Bladder so I was scheduled for a short 1 hour Surgery for Camera work, keyhole Gall Bladder removal and, being a Living National Treasure, an overnight stay to make sure I was good to go.
In lay terms it all turned to shit and I ended up on the table for over 6 hours and a week in Hospital...
Gangrenous flesh eating icky Gall Bladder had started to trash the Liver and Bile Ducts, infect the stomach and snarl up the internal plumbing then 1/2 way thru my lungs partially collapsed which really made the Surgeons happy.
Scared the bejeezus out of my Kids as both my Mrs and my Sister died around 5 years ago from medical cockups in Hospital after minor surgical procedures went wrong but I was narc'd off my face and out on a Planet not yet known to science so I was the last to find out.
Anyhow, I'm back vertical again and the typing fingers are working OK so look out...
Plus no work until 2018, yeeeeehah
