    For those who didn't notice, I wasn't around last week for good reason.

    Seems that what I thought was a large cyst on my back turned out to be a huge abscess that required admit to the hospital and 4 surgeries within 10 days to clean the darn thing out. Plus a ton of antibiotics administered almost 24 hours a day for several days.

    The surgeon is satisfied that the infection is cleared out of my body but I still have to have daily antibiotic injections for the next 4 to 6 weeks with careful monitoring. What a mess!

    And I feel pretty puny right now cuz, at my age, recovery is slower. But getting better every day.

    Life can deal you a punch in the face sometimes.

    Prayers for a complete healing, and thankful for your good medical care.

    Years ago, I had a similar experience. It takes awhile to bounce back.

    Whoa, Dude. Sorry about that. Glad to have you back and getting better. I can identify with "at my age, recovery is slower."
