Susan Update

Came thru surgery like a champ.  Appreciates everyones concern and prayers.  She had a serious case of appendicitis.  All better now but will be laid up for a bit.  She does not have a laptop.  So, I’m working on getting one into her hands.  If she’s just laying around in a hospital I’d rather she be blogging than eating hospital food.

    Thanks for the update. Glad to hear she’s doing so well. I’m a newbie here but I’ve noticed her absence the last couple of days a lot. Hope she’ll be back in fighting fettle real soon.

  • catherine

    What, you’d put her to work? You fascist.

    Print this out for her, it’s hysterical.

      Good to know, I wish her a speedy and painless recovery…

  • Mr.Murder

    Thanks for the good news of Susan.

    Look forward to having her back here in blogging form.

    Hope you can find that lap top soon, Larry….:o)

    Hope her case of peritonitis is gone real soon too. That is a very serious condition to have. Get well soon, Susan. At least she does not have to worry about a colostomy to worry with now. She is like her cat, Bear, she has 9 lives and she will bounce back very soon, I have an inclination of…..;O)

      Wha? peritonitis?

      I thought it was just an inflammation of the appendix.

  • Shirin

    Larry, I have some spare laptops and would be happy to lend her one to use. After all, I can only use one at a time. Just let me know.

  • Shirin

    Glad you got through it well, Susan, and are healing. A rapid and complete healing for you. Try not to get too bored!

  • Mr.Murder

    Shirin,

    you could put this in perspective better,yes?

    RezkoWatch
    “RezkoWatch will follow the adventures — and misadventures — of indicted Chicago political friendster-fundraiser Antoin “Tony” Rezko and his relationship with Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.).”

    Auchi is the item. Everywhere he goes stuff goes wrong from foreign policy perspectives, for all sides, yet he still profits.

    He’s done some heavy duty laundering of right leaning political campaigns in Spain and Germany, based off oil transactions.

    He’s a long time financier who partnered with and against Saddam. Contra weapons, Oil for Food, INC, major finance institutions of the EU.

    The blog sponsor replies to comments. You’ve got insight to the topics to a level you could probably best express there.

    Thanks for your encouragement and help to Susan as well. Get well, Susan!

    • Shirin

      Thanks, Mr. M. I’ll take a look and give it some thought.

  • Nellie

    Thanks for the Update – Good to hear.

    On the laptop – make a deal with her surgeon that you will provide it, if he will agree to keep her an extra 10 days or so.

    No point in her pushing hard too soon – she’ll just have a setback.

    Larry,

    Poor Susan, hospital food will be the least of her worries for the next few days. She’ll probably be stuck with an NG tube and IV dinners for now. Once she is allowed anything by mouth it will in all likelyhood be weak tea and green (yuck) gelatin. Her worst problem will be boredom. No hospital I’ve ever been in offered anything better than basic cable TV. Get that woman’s IPOD to her imediately! Music heals more that the soul.

    larry …

    great news … thanks for the update!

    do we need to start a “laptop” fund for our favorite blogger?

  • TeakwoodKite

    I am so glad to hear that SusanUNPC made it through. Empath thoughts to you Susan. May the force be with you in your healing.

  • JoeCHI

    Feel well, babe! ;)

  • CognitiveDissonance

    Susan, so glad to hear that you are doing well. I’ve been thinking about you. You are greatly missed here.

  • Delia

    Take care, Susan. Get well, and keep up your spirits.

  • tarters

    Thanks for the update, Larry. Anyone who is fortunate enough to have you as a friend is indeed lucky.
    We miss you Susan, take your time getting back into the saddle cowgirl!
    Best Wishes,

    I remember the Demerol being quite effective when I had my appendix taken out…

    Hope you have a speedy recovery, Susan!

  • hope4usa

    Best wishes for a speedy recovery! Don’t push yourself too soon…abdominal surgery takes time to recover (speaking from experience). Try and stay away from those so called perks (Demerol) as soon as you can.

  • hope4usa

    Larry,

    Just curious—any comments on Mukasey’s statements today? Again, don’t get me wrong—its no low level CIA that I think should be prosecuted. They did that with Abu Ghahaib (sp?), with regular military. It’s the people at the top levels that are wrong, that avoid prosecution. Now a new justification, with no legal precedent, much less a Constitutional one, that the OLC now gets to interpret the law and enforce the law. where is this country going?

  • ybnormal

    Susan, you trooper you,
    When your able, would welcome your thoughts on my comment at

    Just don’t rip your stitches when you read it

    Meantime, get well, take care

  • Gloria

    Get better soon…don’t push yourself to do too much too fast!!!

  • silver

    I really miss your posts, Susan! I know you need your rest, but I really miss your posts!!! So get better soon. Rest! But make your recovery fast!!

  • Sandy

    So glad to hear the surgery went well. We miss you, Susan! Please take good care of yourself and get lots of rest.

  • truthteller2007

    Susan,
    Hope you are feeling better!

    Larry,
    If you were a real pal, you would be bringing her a laptop AND outside food!
    Never loved my family as much as when they arrived with food during vising hours!!!!!

  • Ron Cowin

    Get better soon. I expect some special insights into the medical insurance debate. hope that you have medical insurance.

  • Marjorie

    Susan, take care and get well soon. I hope you miss blogging as much as I miss your blogs.

  • Delia

    Hey Susan,

    Are you going to be able to do your state caucus tomorrow, or does being stuck as a hospital patient put you out of luck?

    Hope you’re feeling better.
