    hmmmm, restricted list, huh? Whoops, didnt think about that. dang it! Im usually such a good google-researcher too! :lol:

    Carolyn is awesome!!!! :) What a nice little package of goodness! I want pictures of your shoes laced up, and by carolyn's suggestion- the PJ socks will go with them wonderfully! :lol:

    David is some kinda sales mgr for a dental supply company, thats what thats all about. That's good shit--he sent me some too! :)

    The mags are SUPER cool. Leanne is the shizzer :D

    And Appie was SO excited to give you that hat when I met him for dinner in chicago. He is a super good guy :)

    i have to admit--when PJ played the fixer the other night here in Toronto, I totally thought of you. And as much as you hate that song, it will always make me think of you :lol: . Canada has been great--just one more show and I'll be headed home, but its been an amazing September. The boys are on a roll--by the time they get to Vancouver, you are going to be knocked on your ass (hopefully softly ;) )

    hugs to you, as always :)

    no worries....the doc told me to slowly add everything back to my diet. the popcorn and cashews have been broken out! :mrgreen:
    The boys are on a roll--by the time they get to Vancouver, you are going to be knocked on your ass (hopefully softly ;) )
    softly, for sure! right now, I'm that extinct dinosaur...the megasaurass :lol:

    the doc told me I look "great." well, duh ;)

    he removed half of the 15 stitches in my butt. the rest will wait until after vancouver. he says it looks great back there...I'll take his word for it :lol: . I'm still on no driving, no lifting restriction. he said a heavy lift could literally cause my colon to exit thru my ass :shock: . he also said I am now at a 20% increased chance of colon cancer, down the road. next year's colonoscopy will be telling. I won't worry about that, right now. I think my oct-dec chemo could be shitty (literally). I will also not worry about that until it happens.

    thanks guys!!! :mrgreen:

    P.S. the doc wants me off the "narcotics." I thought I was doing dang good to be down to ONE 5mg oxycodone per day. I mean, jeez, he was ripping and cutting for four hours :shock:

    ONE oxycodone doesn't seem like much to me....especially if I remember college! ;)

    Sounds like a pretty good Dr visit.

    Hope the dinner menu starts getting better and better each passing day! We will have to make plans to go out in the next month or so.

    I know what you mean- and the choice is difficult, basically pain vs getting hooked... which is why I can't (and won't) ever take benzodiazapines again without being immediately re-addicted. Maybe better to follow his advice in case you ever need the meds again (hopefully not!) It really does sound like you have a good doc- even when he does seem like a bully! ;)

    Hang in there, Rob! :D

    Sounds like a fabulous Dr visit. It sounds like you have a pretty great one. :mrgreen:

    Take it easy on the foods getting re-introduced. Something you would think would be easy for you....are actually the toughest ones. :?

    Here's a thought for the oxy's....cut that 5mg in half one day and see how taking half a dose may help. After my brain surgery last year that is what I had to do. Slowly cut them out and go from there. You'd be surprised what a mind over matter effect it can be. I believe the dr has your best interest at hand here. As sucky as it may sound.

    You'll be in my thoughts and prayers. Hugs to you buddy. :D

    I substituted 5 Guiness for 5mg of oxycodone. Happy? :lol:

  • Hey Rob! Sitting at the Toronto airport with Kelly after getting a ride from Dave from the hotel to the airport. Meet Shimmymommy and a bunch of other peeps and had a great time! Nice to read you're doing well and that you're able to bust into the cashews and Guiness. Happy indeed! :D

    Just to let you know, we rocked our asses off at the shows. You do the same in Vancouver, oh yea, you don't have an ass to rock off! :shock: Careful, if you rock your dick off you'll be adrogynus :o The boys are bringing it and seem to be in a real rare form. You can tell they're having a ton of fun on stage.

    When do you leave for Vancouver and where are you staying? It's a week from Sunday! 8-)8-)8-)

    Stay well and don't let anything get in the way of that Vancouver show! Nada, zip, zero, you are there!

    Peace!
