Thanks

Moving this up. Any update on how Gerry is doing?

It's ME!

I will get back and give you guys all details soon, I just got home this afternoon, but the quick version is so far so good!

TTYS

Gerry

Yay! Welcome back!!!! :-) I can't believe you are already back on the computer. You ARE a rose addict.

Welcome Back, Gerry!! Like Michelle said, you are a true rose addict...a good thing to be IMHO. :)

I'm so glad your home and doing good Gerry. Sending prayers and good wishes your way!!
Maureen

Addicted, me...lol

I knew about Norma making a post so I thought after all that time in the hospital I would have a little fun and check it out. I can only sit here for short periods at a time, the chair is most uncomfortable, so I figured a HI, I am back....would be OK.

OK....details...Started having some chest pains at work on Sunday the 7th, some of the worst things I had ever felt before, but not like the proverbial elephant on your chest. Rich was out on vacation and had dropped me off at work so I called him to come get me and take me to the E.R. Spent that night, was supposed to have a stress test on Monday, that got put off and cancelled when I had the same pains again on Monday night. Went in for Catherization on Tuesday...5 blockages 3 of them at 90%, Gee... I guess that is why I had the surgery on Wednesday

All went well, now I just need to recouperate, and let me tell you it is not the chest incision that is the worst right now, but rather the leg where they took the grafts. Swollen about 3x normal size and sore.

OK, gonna go, I think the pain pill is kicking in

Gerry

Gerry,

Sounds very serious. Glad they were able to fix the plumbing before it got any worse.

Honey Perfume is getting ready to sport it's first bud, I will post a picture when it does. :-)

Sending a HUG!
Michelle

Hi Gerry,
I spend most of my time on the Antique Rose forum so maybe you don't know me, but I figure even a relative stranger's good wishes count for something, and you have mine. Hope you're making a good recovery. Congratulations on getting to the hospital in time! There IS something to be said for modern technology, isn't there?

Melissa

Sending good wishes and prayers to Gerry for your continued good recovery. p.s. How are your roses doing:-)
I'm sure that is reason to get well soon. lol

Take care
Maureen

Melissa,

I agree, good wishes count no matter where they come from, thank you!

Maureen,

Not sure what is going on yet with some of them, but I guess I shall know soon. Most of them never made it outside, so the indoor method will be tested, good thing they are cuttings, just a bit more expendable than plants....shhhh....don't tell ANYONE I said that.

Gerry
