What else major general is growing like a weed is occasionally forgetting he’s a puppy and just likes to bite and chew on everything though I think it’s gonna be quite a dog and he already is quite a dog but it is rounding in the shape just unbelievably big so I had a first obedience lesson one on one with the lady who runs one of the better it will be the schools in the area she’s impressive got her dogs to do what I did a lot of coaching with Suzanne and I and and I think we’re starting to get the hang of this dog ownership thing.
And with a couple of items that I’m not really put up here before I want to wish I wasn’t even aware of that when I did the original post and that was that the week before my surgery and I was hospitalized I was pretty much out of it here at home in bed and Xander is concerned enough to finally tell the doctors and just say we got to go to the hospital that started the path right now so again kudos to her and the other one is a postop I really don’t like that I transferred it was at the Sunday before the surgery right now yeah I was transported to the hospital on Sunday, 29 August and had surgery on August 31.
The week before that I was pretty much out of it in bed. Complication was I was under some pretty heavy antibiotics pursuing the possibility that my headaches were due to a high sinus infection which is a very difficult diagnosis.
ultimately Suzanne me to call the doctor and said we got to get on the hospital phone call 911 and transfer came. I remember doing kind of a regal hand wave farewell to neighbors who I was sure was watching as I was carded out on a gurney corona whatever transport Anna whatever transport.
in the day I was in the hospital before surgery I was shuttle amongst the number of small spaces either small curtain area within the ER a small room and when I woke up postop I was in this gigantic room probably the size of 15 to 20 of the normal private single bed rooms that were in this particular hospital part of the shuttling was all due to the Covid patient load was in the hospital system. Anyway I woke up in this gigantic room I look down there’s like four doctor standing across the bed talking amongst themselves about me and finally they look at my way and I’m looking at this room I just asked them literally is true this is a “am I someone important?“ Somewhere along the way I heard that this facility and the staff by Navy personnel sometime in the past it was originally founded as a hospital on Galveston Island by a group of nuns but after the 1900 hurricane currently was relocated to Northeast Texas or East Texas.
The doctor for this left him was my surgeon neurosurgeon he’s the one who took out what he could of the tumor.
To the right of him was I there’s a Doctor Who had that point in time was in the lead for them for the groove and as it’s kind of melted in the background next to him with someone who I’m not sure what was that could’ve been the anesthesiologist and then to one more step to the right was my oncologist and the head of a very large oncology operation here here in there and he’s the lead right now.
Back to the story after asking if I was someone important I followed up with a more pointed questions asking if I was an admiral switch my college I said no he said you’re your the general I went OK and he said he won’t know why you’re the general and I said yeah cause you’re the patient and the patient is the most important person like a general… OK sounds good.so that’s the parallel story as far as the dogs name which who got his name primarily because he had two white spots in a long is back in though was a brown hair area was body I was well body hair and it looks very much like stars early on the feeding and kind of becoming less distinct now ones basically gone in the other one is fading but two star general yeah major general that’s a Dino and think we’re adding true Scott or TruScott OK more later and yeah I’ll minimize fix office if I do any just so Dbone won’t sulk ??

I swear I am not half as weird as this voice to text i making me out to be...
Yeah sure.?

I have his phone # and email... I'll check in today....
As a fellow wine lover... You can't take it with you... Unfortunately- like my pal Tom who didn't get around to drinking 6,000 or so bottles of wine before he checked out- that his kids inherited. So if you're going out... Drink up.

Funny this is being bumped, I just thought about him the other day and was going to shoot Tour a text.
I know he was dealing with the fallout from chemo and treatment, so I didn't want to bother him. But figured we would have heard from him around this point.

I hope he is OK, but we can't think the worst. He is going through a rough patch, and some patches are rougher than others. In those rougher times it would be hard to think about a message board of "friends" when it is hard enough to deal with the day to day stuff on his plate.
Prayers out to Tour and his family.

Sent him a text this morning, will check back in when I hear something.

Heard back from him around 6pm last night. Seems like he's in good spirits. Said he hasn't been hitting much film review because he's struggling to find the energy. But his focus when he does is on Day 2 and beyond QB's.
Most importantly, he's still with us fighting the good fight.

Too many fucking ologists in our lives these days. Best of luck old friend Rock on. Thankfully friendship is here to remind us how insignificant our petty differences are elsewhere.
Remember it's too damn early for you to go see the Gipper.

FWIW, Bruce called me back this afternoon when he got around to checking his voicemail. Had a really nice 20 minute conversation. Sounded great, considering all he's been through. Another couple rounds of high dose chemo of late. He is still doing his position reviews, and upbeat. Same as tia heard.. he's having energy issues finding enough strength to be able to post here, but don't give up hope that we'll hear from him sometime soon.

Sometimes sleep or at least rest is truly your best medicine. Put down the computer and all of that other "stuff" and just kick back and just enjoy some music or whatever you like to do.
Hang in there Bruce one day at a time. mjp
GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND! -
Hang in there Bruce one day at a time. mjp
We're all old enough now to heed that sage advice.?

God damnit, Tour. I was just thinking about why I hadn't seen you in the tavern or discord yet. I figured you either ran to Hawaii and eloped with some random girl or a rattlesnake got you.
There are very few original football opinions on this board that make me stop and re-evaluate my stance should they point something out of their own. And yours has always been right as the top. So don't you dare have the AUDACITY to check out before the Brownies bring one home. But when that happens? Then you have my permission to go out and about as you please.
You know we'll all be thinking about you buddy.

Nah.... round, just not watching enough football to have anything even I think is worthwhile posting, but I' working on a couple things. Especially with FA heating up.
