In answer to all who enquired where I was, as I had not been on the forum for some time, the reason was, I has an anuarism in my abdomen, which was found be accident at my local Hospital when I was ad mitted for something unrelated to what they found by a CT scan. I was admitted to Addenbrooks, where they operated, and strengthened the aorta. and things seem to have settled down.I am awaiting yet another op, from the hospital whence I was first admitted in August, and where by sheer luck, they found the anuarism.
Thanks Graham, (Blue_2) for your support, and now to trawl through the forum to see what I have missed.

Sky High. Many thanks for your reply,as for returning to normal, you can bet a pound to a pinch of the proverbial, the 2nd op will be smack on when the display season starts, so I will be sitting at home as now, recovering. Trouble is, if you cancell, you go back to square one.

Welcome back and hear’s to your second op being as successful as the first so that you return to a normal life ( whatever that is ) as quickly as possible. Having had a gap myself a few months ago I can recommend the extensive reading involved to catch up – you learn a lot!!:)

Welcome back Lincoln, I’m glad the trouble was spotted in good time. My dad had serious aortic trouble last year, he collapsed last July and had to have emergency surgery which thankfully saved his bacon! Knowing how serious it can be, I’m glad to hear you’ve come through it all seemingly so smoothly.
To your good health sir!
Hi AdlerTag. I am very pleased to hear that your father made a good recovery.
It would appear, having spoken at length with the surgeon who carried out the Op, that men over the age of 55 are most likely to have an anuarism that they don’t know they have, until like your dad, it bursts. He also advised that men over the age of 60, should go and see their Doctors, and ask if they can have a CT scan, to see if they are clear or not.I am 70 this July, so I suppose I fall into the “Anything can happen”, category. but very lucky it was found before it popped!!:D

You’re welcome.
Some other forums I’m on have an ” I won’t be around for a while ” facility on the member’s profile,which saves you wondering.That wouldn’t have been much use for an emergency exit like yours though.
Anyway I’ve left my password in a sealed envelope for Mr. Bee to announce it in the unfortunate event of my popping my clogs unexpectedly.That’s because we women are organised :diablo:
Does anyone know what happened to Red Hunter,who posted a lot last year ?
