Been here sense Monday morning and I have yet to eat anything that was good, not counting the red Popsicle. Load it up with salt and pepper and with
another bottle of Tabasco.
The morphine was a bit much with the side affects so now it's Oxy, doesn't help the food taste any better, but who cares.Todd - 15-12-2010 at 09:50 AM
Hope all is going well Jeff and praying for your speedy recovery!
Psst.. don't try the mystery meat WELDNGOD - 15-12-2010 at 09:56 AM
hang in there Jeff, get well.Maven454 - 15-12-2010 at 09:58 AM
Sufficient Tabasco sauce will make anything edible, that's why the military puts little bottles in their MREs.Leojim - 15-12-2010 at 10:19 AM
Bummer on the hospital food. Makes a bad deal even worse. We are lucky here....sometimes we even go to the hospital cafeteria for lunch! Same food
as they feed the patients (stetson correct me if I'm wrong) but of course sometimes dietary considerations get in the way.
Hang tight....it will soon be in the past. The sooner the better!acampbell - 15-12-2010 at 10:23 AM
We'll have to get you some Jolakia pepper, which rates 855,000 on the Scoville scale, compared to Tobasco at 2500-5000
Heal up fast!!shehatesmyhobbies - 15-12-2010 at 10:28 AM
Tell them you want some Jello!
Hoping for a speedy recovery for you! Get home for Christmas!bobalooie57 - 15-12-2010 at 10:49 AM
I've always thought that Dr's should prescribe home cooking, nothing makes you feel better than a home cooked meal, made with love!(As long as that is
not what got you there in the first place! :megan: )bigkid - 15-12-2010 at 11:38 AM
Thanks guys for the words of encouragement.

Thats all I need with everything else, flame thrower farts:wee:
I have a nice view up here on the 12th floor looking out over the tops of these building watching the flags stand strait out. Realy couldn't be a
better day to go bugging.
It would be a good day to do anything besides sitting here.DHKITE - 15-12-2010 at 11:41 AM
if you're hopped on Oxi's make sure you ask them for a glass of prune nextar Everyday... the stuff's nasty but You would rather drink it than
Experience the alternatives.
From somebody whos been Re-built a few times.... Heal fast.Seanny - 15-12-2010 at 04:51 PM
Careful with the meds! Those are some crazy painkillers you're on. You don't even want to know what the street price of that little green pill goes
for. :P And opiate withdrawal is nasty, nasty, nasty.
Take it easy! Hang in there! I'll fly tomorrow for you.
Cheers,

Mmm I enjoyed morphine - I never slept so well heal up soon dude!
Oh and - be grateful you're not in a Japanese hospital :o imagine if you will - you're bored shiftless stuck in bed all day, in pain, not feeling
great and are presented with dinner that consists of a whole fish, eyes, guts and all, fried in fermented beans with a boiled cabbage and seaweed side
dish ... oh, the horror!Seanny - 15-12-2010 at 07:23 PM
Kami you guys love that stuff! xD
I've taken trips to China (much different, I know) with my dad and have never seen a more revolting array of food than I saw there. I didn't even
think food that disgusting was possible. Pickled chicken feet, live rat, scorpion, possum, sea urchin goo, skinned-but-still-living fish, chainsaw
chicken (whole chicken boiled and cleaved with a big knife, bones and all), ox @%#&, you name it... ugh... that's only the start of it...
Make no mistake about it though, Japan has some pretty outrageous food also. I've been served black fish-egg-goo slime stuff with a side of live squid
and... okay. I'm making myself sick. It is times like these when I'm more proud than ever to be an American
Cheers,

Dude I'm about as Asian as you are :D Lots of people are all "Oh I love Japanese food" cos they had sushi a few times and think it's great ... REAL
Japanese food will change their mind in a hurry Seanny - 15-12-2010 at 10:03 PM
Oh yes, I know what you mean :D Americanized Asian food is WAAAAAYYYYYY different. Although, I am partial to sushi and sashimi.
I have been to the poor parts of China, with the smog and the coal dust and the sweat shops and the utter waste of human life. Those people eat what
they can catch. Most Americans have no clue. And they don't believe them when I tell them.bigkid - 16-12-2010 at 08:55 AM
Not sure but I think the stuff Seanny was talking about was breakfast this morning, had to send it back. Don't understand how you can screw up on
breakfast, Good thing my granddaughter sent chocolate chip cookies yesterday.
Good news, the drain tubes came out this morning, so if the lungs don't deflate, I get to go home Wouldn't you know it no wind today.bigkid - 17-12-2010 at 05:08 AM
Molasses cookies, watermelon, chicken soup, fresh squeezed orange juice. The breakfast of champions. It is good to be back home. Now to give it
another 4 or so weeks and will be good as new. The biggest difference is I can reach into the fridge with my left arm and actually remove something
with it.

Yep, now I have a real titanium chest. I especially like the 3-D version of the xray, Shows all the ones that didn't heal were they should have, but
found a way to make it happen anyway:puzzled:
More like Frankin-chest :tumble:Seanny - 17-12-2010 at 10:11 AM

wow jeff,i watch that rib-lock thing ,get well. i'm felling really lucky i havent got really hurt bad compared to you ,cj and dhkite." just a
couple knocks to the head."Seanny - 17-12-2010 at 05:56 PM
Flail chest looks uber painful. I've had to have my radius hammered (literally) back into my arm then reset. Probably the most excruciating thing I've
ever felt. But I'd do it again, twice, in place of breaking my chest.
heal up soon dude!
