Title: Tee's Surgery
Post by: ACW3 on August 23, 2017, 07:59:44 PM
First of all, Tee's surgery went well.  It was a drive-through procedure on his left shoulder/collar bone to clean up the arthritis spurs.  No rotator cuff problems were found by his doctor.  He is home recovering.  I talked to his wife earlier this evening and he is doing fine.  Of course, he is still on his meds.  All bets are off as they wear off.  I believe he is due to start his physical therapy as early as tomorrow.  Wish him well.

Here he is on his phone until the last minute.

Godspeed on a thorough and quick recovery Tim!
I must say, if it wasn't for that hospital bed I wouldn't have had a clue as to anything being wrong. I mean you're in your everyday socks, jumper and sporty headgear! Lol
Truly get better buddy!

Thanks Boys and Girls!  Will take a while - but I will be swingin' a fly rod soon i hope. Got to get thru the re-hab....Which is not fun, but it is pain - with a point. And that point is to get stronger and pain free...(seems like a bad irony huh?)

Tee- Here is hoping for a speedy recovery. But I am sure that you will recover sooner than we will get over the picture of you in the hospital gown. : )

True story Gus: The first nurse's aid - who was obviously mad at some other man from earlier in the day - said brusquely "Strip off everything and put on that hospital gown!"....I looked at her and asked if she thought I was getting the "special" which must have included a free colonoscopy with  shoulder surgery...? She responded - " No - this is just our policy"... My response - which ended the discussion was "Ain't that special? Well, hon - MY policy is the the drawers stay on if you ain't planning on working my plumbing. And - if the blood from my shoulder cuttin' gets down to my underwear, I will keep them for evidence. ...We clear?" ( My wife just about had kittens, and gave me the stink eye - but that little floozie dang near RAN out of the room, and her replacement was much more flexible about..."policy" ;) ;D thus - I retained my underwear, and a modicum of dignity. Not easy to preserve in a hospital...

Tee, you did good with that nurse. She might have fainted if she saw those Aggie drawers hit the floor and stand up by themselves. That's the Aggie way!

SV - I just did what anyone with any hope of preserving a smidgen of self-respect would do. Speak up and question when we see  or are told things that make no sense. Already too much of that available when you are watching TV - right? ;D

So, you mean, you don't drop trow when you're getting a tooth filled ????  I think I need a new dentist ! ! !

Really, a similar thing happened to me a few years ago, with a similar result.  I just told the aide that if that was their policy, that was fine by me, but I would be collecting my belongings and checking out of the d@mn joint.  She went to get the surgeon, I told him the same thing, he told me to keep my pants on ! ! !
