Would it be too awfully nosey of me to ask why you had to spend so much time in hospital?  I'm really glad you are home and are recovering.   :cuddle;

To answer some questions. After 2 weeks in hospital for a bypass had about 2 weeks at home recovering. But back totally seized up allowing no movement whatsoever. Ambulance came to take me away (ha, ha, they're coming to take me away). The stay in hospital; was horrendous - had to sleep and sit in a recliner every day for two weeks. Finally they found the solution and gave me a horse needle in the hip. Most of the sciatica pain has gone  but eventually will have to have a hip replacement.

Murf..I'm glad to see you back but sorry to hear of your troubles.  Take it pretty easy for a while, that sciatica is nothing to fool around with.

Murf mnate I don't mind a punt on the gee gee's but I'm not too thrilled about the sound of that horse needle... other than it has sorted you out - or at least set you on the road to some kind of normalcy!! So glad to hear from you!

Hang in there and continue to recover!!
