Good news! The ERCP was successful. All those MRIs and CT scans managed to miss the 7 mm gallstone that was lodged in Drew's common bile duct. It has been removed. He still has recovery ahead but should FINALLY start to truly heal. Thank you, Buffista vibes!
I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Now that ND's surgery has gone well, I guess it's my turn to ask for some Buffista vibes. My lumpectomy surgery is scheduled for 11:00 tomorrow--can I get some easy surgery and no lymph node involvement-ma?

Everything went well, and quickly, and now we are on the way home. No sentinel node involvement, which is what we wanted.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
I am really afraid of flying so if any of you frequent travelers have any tips (or know of ways to get upgrades so I'm so pampered that I don't realize i'm in the air over 8 hours), I would be very appreciative. I know we recently had an anxious flyer who made a successful trip so that gives me hope. I've avoided it for thirteen years (I know), but now it is going to be necessary for me to travel. I was beginning to think that maybe I'd never have to fly again, but then love of travel made me confront the fear. So around 7am CST Oct 3rd, please send some just-suck-it-up-and-get-on-the-freakin-plane ma my way, I would really appreciate it. Also don't-freak-out-midway-and-embarrass-yourself ma would be good too.
Do we have any buffistas in Hawaii? I'll be in Honolulu Oct 3rd-14th, then on Kauai 14th-26th if anyone wants to meet up. I know it's a remote possibility, but we are talking Buffistas, so you never know. Profile addy is good.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
So glad that the news is getting better for everyone!
I hope that continues. Could I get some ~ma tomorrow morning around 9 am EDT? I'll be in court and I need a good outcome.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
I'll be in NorCal from Sept. 30 - Oct. 11. While I have some things definitely fixed like Hardly Strictly Bluegrass on the 3rd and Harbin Hot Springs from 4-7/8, I have other times available, esp evenings. If some Bay Area Buffistas want to meet up for a cheap dinner somewhere, please drop me a line.
