Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Transplant~ma to your friend, Jilli. I have a friend who's on her second transplanted liver, and it's amazing how people can spring back post-surgery.

Because books.

Wow. All kinds of medical~ma to your friend, Jilli.

I've had significant improvement overnight

That's good news. My back went out once when Jake was little -- maybe around two -- and it was a spasm. Just this horrible knot of pain that got tighter and tighter. It's awful. My mother-in-law lived in town, though, so she essentially took him for about three days, during the day, while Stephen was at work. Picking up toddlers is not conducive to a thrown-out back.

Much ~ma to Jilli's friend.

Eeeeee! An update from my friend's wife:

He's still in surgery, but the old liver is out and the new one is in. There's still about an hour of surgery left while they finish hooking all the bits up. We're not out of the woods yet, but the trees are becoming more sparse. Keep doing whatever you've been doing.

What is even happening?

All the tubes are out of Hubby, and he's on Prednizone for the residual pain. He says it hurts worse than the kidney stones.
Oh, the poor guy. I hope it gets under control.

He's stood up and wobbled in place a bit, he's managed to get a bit of solid food down him and have it stay. They're saying I should be able to take him home today.
You know connie, I think I'd bounce around the words accidental hole burn through heart; malpractice lawyer and see if I couldn't get him another night or two in the hospital. I know the hospital sucks, but that's a lot of stress on you to have him home, and if his pain is bad, his blood pressure can spike. Screw that. He needs to be monitored. They burnt through his heart.

cereal,

Many prayers and good thoughts for your friend, Jilli. Is this the man who was so ill a couple of months ago?
