Re: No boil?
The surgeon was happy with how it went. He expects my wife to be released in 7-9 days.
I am profoundly relieved and extremely exhausted.
The beer turned out pretty good, considering how primitive the brewing conditions were. I had several pints.

Re: No boil?
Great news. You deserved a few beers after that.

Re: No boil?
Got a call from my wife's surgeon a couple of hours ago and he's very happy with her progress. I even got to say a few words to her. She sounded quite out of it, but I've never heard a better sound.

Re: No boil?
Good to hear she's doing well.

Re: No boil?
Sommeliers recommend that you swirl a glass of wine and inhale its bouquet before throwing it in the face of your enemy.
Re: No boil?
That is wonderful news. I hope she is on the mend and back home with you again soon.Rookie wrote:Got a call from my wife's surgeon a couple of hours ago and he's very happy with her progress. I even got to say a few words to her. She sounded quite out of it, but I've never heard a better sound.

Re: No boil?
My wife's improved enough to be moved out of ICU as soon as a regular room becomes available.

Re: No boil?
I know the surgery saved my wife's life, but if you've never seen anyone after open heart surgery (triple bypass and a valve replacement) it is quite shocking:a ton of bruises and LOTS of stitches.
Luckily we got her to the hospital before a heart attack.

Re: No boil?
Yes, surgery is a very invasive thing. My wife had major surgery several years ago and it was a shock to see how it affected her. It's amazing how they recover over time though; what looks like a massive wound straight afterwards becomes a barely-detectable white line after a year or so.

Re: No boil?
It looks like she's going to be released tomorrow or Thursday.
When I went to see her this morning a tired looking little old lady got on the lift with me. Her husband had the same operation: triple bypass. The poor old sod then had a stroke.

Re: No boil?
Got some good news. Most open heart surgery patients have to take blood thinners for a while after getting released, but my wife's heart has improved enough that she won't have to.
