    Best wishes and God bless you and your family.

    I don't know much about Crohn's, but I almost bought the ranch from a massive GI bleed a couple of years ago. I know what a clear liquid diet means -- coupled with endoscopies and colonoscopies, again and again.

    Stay focussed on God's gift, the joy of a new life in the family, and get better quickly!

    Update:

    I underwent my procedure finally (wont go into details about the how hard it was to get that done) and they found nothing, which is good. What they did find was an area they keep categorizing as a cavity/fissure/old fistula, ect. They cut it open a bit so it could drain and sent me back up to my room.

    The surgeon's said I was good to go, so the GI's said the same today so I should hopefully be out today.

    On another note I may have a local buyer for my Sundown amp. That and the coolest thing was that my wife went and bought me HALO 4 and it looks like we can still make our trip, just leave a bit later than we wanted.

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    Thanks to all for thoughts and prayers.

    I can tell you that you always forget how weak you are after a hospital visit. Just taking a shower this morning was an ordeal :smile:. I made the mistake last night of eating a really big meal at Red Robin, well my body made my pay for that by not keeping it down the hatch too long :sad:.

    Anyway we got home about 4:30 and I literally just sacked out from about 4:30 till 8:30 when we finally went to sleep. I woke up around 9 and couldn't take the hospital smell that was all over me so I hopped in the shower and it took some doing to get it all scrubbed off of me. Then to shave off the week of growth on my face and downstairs for toast :biggrin:.

    Now its off to de-install my Sundown car amp and get it sold then back home to do some cleaning in advance of our trip. Going to take it slow cause man I feel tired just going up stairs.

    Halo: Get well yourself, and find something to keep yourself busy and your mind off things, thats the hardest part of being there. I also hope you dont have a roomate as I did and I will simply say it sucked.

    Sorry for jacking the thread. I am hearing that they may or may not do the ablation tomorrow. If not they'll bring me back next week. :(

    Hey man I could care less :smile:. Thread title was prayers needed. Not prayers needed for me only me and never anyone else:smile:. Hope they take care of your stuff soon. Hospital stays are the worst especially around turkey time. You gonna at least be out for that if you have to go next week?

    P.S. we would all rather have you around than your gear :smile: but if your giving it away..... :razz: I'll take whatever you want :biggrin:.

    Thanks EVERYONE! I was just told I am on for tomorrow for this procedure. Also found out what that costs. Damn! No insurance either at work. About 32 days short of being eligible at the new job to.
