GMC Take’s a break
« on: May 16, 2016, 09:58:02 pm »
I haven’t been running on all cylinders for a while now as my Crohns disease is once again making my bowel self destruct internally.
It has got to the point that I need another “cut & shut’ (my hat trick!) which was planned for next week alas I fell in a heap late last week (exhaust contents coming out of the carby will do that :o) and have been in hospital for the last few days and surgery has now been bumped up to tomorrow.

I had planned on finishing several jobs the that are now all half finished on my workbench so I will be letting quite a few people down and I don’t have access to my emails or phone No’s to let them know so this is a public call out and apology for those that I have dissappointed.
Also have a heap of emails to reply to that I pushed to one side as I was trying to finish jobs and sort out when the procedure might be (been doing countless tests for months), I will be onto them in a couple of weeks. Suspect I will be in here another week at least.
Technically recovery is around 6 weeks but we will see how it all goes

My "comeback" takes another setback.

Thanks guys

Yeap, good luck, hope you get your shit together.

Ha, good on you.

Had a colonoscopy a few weeks back then went to see my Gastroentoroligist for the results but he was looking a bit weary.
Turned out he had a hard day at the orifice.

The things people will do to get out of work! Which hospital you in Geoff, are you taking visitors? Best be honest because I (we) will find out anyway! Also if I can help in any way don't be shy. Good luck mate. J

I was transferred to John Fawkner last night, it's a fair way from you.
I won't be wanting any visitors today or tomorrow, the procedure usually knocks me around a bit, currently sitting in my gown and not far from getting my 'Milk'

Can you weld? ;D

Geoff I hope the docs fix you up ok.  If you need a hand with anything; pick up from the hospital or to help lift stuff in the workshop (my welding is not something to could charge people for lol), give me a yell, I'm only 25 mins away.

Regards, John.

"Taking a break" implies that some kind of activity was taking place beforehand!

Seriously though, I hope it all goes well, and don't rush the recovery.
