Heck I hope you mend real quick. Looks like you better just work on your car and leave the house maintenance to others..
Damn son why ja put a zipper in your neck???
At least they were put in straight & spaced evenly.
Glad you're ok & on the mend...joe
And now we know your identity Red Green :rolleyes:
Ouch..that looks painful..Hope ya coming right,Mello..Is Bad Rat the same bad rat whose on here??Maybe a trip to a tattooist when you are healed up,and get a zipper down that scar...Hey,are they going to numb your neck before they pull those staples?or are they a new dissolving type??:confused:
You betcha, altho we have never met, da Rat is mi Amigo and we keep saying that one of these days we are going to the Pacific NW and do some cussin' and discussin'. At the rate I'm goin', we'd better "Git'er done" eh??
As far as the zipper, I don't know what the plan is - - - got a follow-up appt at 3:15 Monday and I plan on bombarding him with questions.
I did "FINALLY" get a good night's sleep last night but the "Vicodin" left me a tad nauseated this morning but it's going away quickly, it seems.
Got to rambling, sorry !
Great "Tat" idea but I'm not a tatoo person :LOL:
That's an impressive row of staples!
My mother had that done back when, they spliced in a cow vein. For years we gave here little gifts with a cow theme til it got old.
Recover well.
I hope you atleast asked the doctor for a new braided stainless steel hose.
I've been trying to think what the doc could have done instead of a zipper.
I need some help with that one though, Maybe a nice weld would have done it.
Maybe you should have had both sides done at once, then it would have looked like
dual exhaust. How cool would that be? HE! HE! HE!
I hope you have a speedy recovery buddy.

To quote my darling granddaughters: Eeeeew!! Ow!
Get better, quicker. I know how scary this stuff is.
There's lotsa funny stories and stuff that lead up and thru all of this and they are slowly coming back to me- - - - - one of the funniest one's, at least I thought so was right before they administered the anesthetic I looked up at my Wiffy and said "Damn, I haven't even got to shoot my automatic pistol that you gave me for my early birthday present. The expression on her face was NOT good !
I bet, It's probably good you didn't tell her you see the light!
She would have been on the table next to you.
Kurt
OK, good start. Now just let your mind wander a little.....
Seriously though, I'm glad you were in a position to catch this.
I wish you Well MelloYello . Do what the Doctors Say . And before Long you will Feel Better then Before .
Heck Richard where do you find that stuff. I have just eaten a pancake for breakfast and I feel it wants to revisit so to speak. Sad that some of you guys and girls have sacrificed so much for the USA to still have some produce children like that. One word YUCK..
I am with you Whiplash double YUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kurt
Sounds like you’re a lucky man, it could have really been bad. It's a good thing you got there as quick as you did.
I have no tattoos or piercing just a lot of scars from injuries.
Richard
Had my follow up visit to the surgeon and he turned me back over to my regular Doctor - - - had his cute little nurse remove the Satples - - - - I asked him if I could drive and he said "YES" as long as you're not taking the meds. Then I said "what about SEX? - - he replied Sex is great - - - I go YES YES YES and he said but not until next week!"
:CRY::mad:**)

Glad you are making the best of it. I would say you were one lucky guy.
In a couple of weeks you can grind down the scar tissue and apply some of your Wiffey's make up and bingo "What Scar" :)
Hey where is Buffalo in relation to Austin?
Dang it man you were lucky. now you can start maken up some good story's about that scar lol.
Glad things are looking up. Better be working on a great scar story.
It wasn't "thru the nose".:LOL: Get well soon!!!!:)
Hope your feeling better Mellow. Now you'll have to grow a full beard to cover up that scar:)
Hey Don, we moved here from Lampasas (big mistake) and BFB is located about half way between Houston and DFW on I-45 !
Used to belong to a HRC out of Buinet called "Lake Area Street Rods- - - - we really miss that bunch, very family and community oriented !
Wow that's a big scar! Glad to hear your doing better! Must be painful turning your head to stare at the cute nurse as she left the room!:3dSMILE:
TIA's are scary. My Aunt had several years of them in the night she would wake up very disoriented. For her it was an adjustment to her heart meds!
Hang in there, heal fast and hang on to that wife she sounds like a keeper!
Here's one for you Mello.
From my favorite movie.

Some strange coincidences are happening, Mello. I thought about you yesterday as my wife and I were returning home from a week-long trip and drove past healthy, happy, Buffalo. I told her that there was a man there that I think I'd like to meet in person some time.
I was unaware of your surgery. I can see where that could scare the britches off a guy. My baby brother (soon to turn seventy) has a "racing stripe" that is just about identical to yours. After nearly losing him, he has been doing great for about two years.
No need to tell you this, but medical science has made really amazing advances in very recent years. Our families might well have had to "order the black box" for you and me had it not been for those advances.
Enjoy your recovery!

Next time you are down this way, Jim, let me know and I'll PM you my phone number and maybe we can at least meet each other for some kussin' and diskussin'.
Thanks! I'll try to do that.
I'll have to figure out an excuse for coming down alone. My wife has no interest at all in the cars discussed on this forum. Obviously, her parents failed her by not teaching her about life's most important subject.
When we visit we won't be able to compare our surgery scars. Yours is visible enough but my last operations .... uh ...... (how can I say this without fear of getting the boot from CHR?) .... dealt with the opposite end of my anatomy.
Continue to improve!
