Charlie, it's stayed in triple digits up until the last few days. You haven't missed a thing.

Again, thanks to all. I am again humbled by your prayers and well wishes. Got home Friday. It's good to sit and sh*t again as God intended. I have the utmost compassion for anyone that presently has or has had an ostomy in the past. Had a hernia around the ostomy area when they went in to close it that had to be dealt with. Haha...does it ever end? But it's all good. I'm sure the grass is 3-4' tall at the farm. Been raining up there 3-4 days a week. Can't wait to get back up there and work. Enjoyed the 2 hr conversation with Rex (Rainman) last week. For those who don't know it, Rex is a miracle. Incredible story...
Bill D, I always see sexy hot nurses in the hospital...they are just never assigned to my room...wonder why that is??? I would think with this grandfatherly face and demeanor they would not send me the old mean nurses.
Pat W, thanks bud for sending the message to my podnuhs....the power of prayer! May the Almighty Pond Boss over all the pond bosses bless you all. Charlie

Stick welcome back man. I kinda chuckle as you talk about what you want though as with the exception of the hernia your story sounds ALL to familiar.... And it's a sucky story... haha... Getting back home though and being able to be yourself again I don't take for granted anymore that's for sure!!
Just take it easy now buddy it actually took me about 7 weeks after I got home to really start to feel better so just don't over do it on them days you feel good!!

RC RC, Agreed! Doc says walk, walk, walk you will heal quick and strong...I walked a 1/2 mile this a.m. And, much like you I don't think I will ever be the same as before. Thanks, Charlie

Hey bud! Great to hear you are back at home! In my opinion, the 'rule' at most hospitals is, when a man needs some embarrassing thing done (catheter placed, enema given, etc, etc) they send in the young, new, cute RN for that. However, if you need a sponge bath, get ready for ol' nurse Cratchet... I guess it motivates the patient to go home faster?? :-)

DrLuke, me thinks you failed to make some of those plural.
Welcome home, Stick'em!!

Welcome home, Stick'em!! Well of course it extends to all the PB crew! I'd be pretty embarrassed at the condition of my pond at this point, but it wouldn't have any impact on the steak, bull or beverages...

Dr. Luke, I'd bet good money I could out do you for the "embarrassing pond of the month" award. I haven't hit a lick since Father's Day. I've been trying to get Rainman out there to clear up the water since before June....still hasn't happened. Charlie

Charlie, at least you have a legitimate excuse! I have no one to blame but myself. I'd bitch about the heat and humidity in August in Iowa preventing me from doing pond projects, but I'd hate to have you PB members from Texas hurt themselves, with all the eye rolling and knee slapping.
But in September, both of us will be ready to do a little pond work. We'll never get it all done, but just the doing is pretty therapeutic IMO
