I'll make this brief. I wi***o thank all who prayed and wished me well on my surgery. I've been home a little over a week now and doing fine on the road to a full recovery and very glad to once again join my "cyber" friends here on this forum. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers, Ken

Thanks to all for your kind words and well wishes. For those that asked, I wi***o give a brief explaination of my illness. I was out in Arizona on my truck and began having severe stomach cramps. Not knowing any doctors out there, I went to the emergency desk at Winslow Memorial Hospital and within a half hour I was in the operating room. Seems I had a perforated colon. They cut the bad part out and did a colostomy on me. This was back before Thanksgiving. The trucking company I work for, flew my wife out to be with me and when she arrived, had what they thought a heart attack, but was actually phnuemonia. We were both air lifted down to Phoenix for recovery there. I went in for another surgery a couple of weeks ago to have all my plumbing reconnected and I'm now on the road to recovery. Wife is fine, with little damage to her lungs and I have to go in this morning to get stitches and staples removed. I now have, what looks like a Z scale layout on my abdomen, complete with a turntable. I still have about 5-6 weeks recovery ahead of me and have to get my strength back from, not only the surgeries but also the results of having all that poison that seeped into me effecting my liver and all. Anyhow, thanks to all of you for making my days a little brighter and easier with this forum. Y'all are the best, Ken
