And I've been here since August 9. Turns out my stomachache was a ruptured appendix. All this time the doctors have been trying to kill the infection so they can operate (that's the latest way to treat a ruptured appendix). It has walled itself off (a good thing), however, two abscesses have popped up in my colon. One was successfully drained, but the other is in a place that cannot be drained. If things are not improved in 48 hours, they will operate, even though it would be better to wait until everything is clean and dry as possible.
This the first day I have felt any good at all. I can finally eat, walk and sleep fairly normally. I am hopeful for the best outcome.
I haven't caught up on anybody's blog and won't for a while, but I just wanted you to know I'm still kickin'.'
Needless to say, all financial experiments are off.
I'm in the hospital

Oh, feel better and take care! I will confess that after English Castle's post yesterday, I called where you work and asked for what I thought your name was. I was wrong as to your real identitiy (I think gleaned from an email notification). Glad to hear from yoU! You had us worried a bit.

Laura, I am so tickled that you called my work! You probably asked for a truncated version of my name, which you got from my personal email address. I happen to share the same last name (rather uncommon) with a very popular young actress who holds an Academy Award. No relation, though!
