Will you post a pic of your kidney in a jar if they have to take it out? Nevermind this not something to joke to heavily about. I hope everything goes well.

If anyone in the vicinity cares to visit a brother while he's down, I'll be at:
Mayo Clinic Hospital (Tim Greene) 5777 East Mayo Blvd Phoenix, AZ 85054 480-515-6296 Guests can feel free to bring along CD's... "Bee Gees", "Donna Summer" or "Gloria Gaynor" preferred ([i]I love disco![/i]), but anything "Pink Floyd" ([i]especially The Wall[/i]) would be quite a boost as well. I did remember to bring Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here", so that ones not on the necessary list. I know that beggers can't be choosey, but I pretty much hate all RAPe, Country, and Metal. Just stick with any of the disco selections and we'll be good to go! [;)] |

Good luck dude. Darn, I was going to call and ask you shooting tomorrow, but no, you got other things to do I guess. Wish they were more fun than what ya got. I'll try to swing by one day. I assume you will be there for several days so Thursday might be best. Jim |

Tim, take it from someone who does surgery. I tell my patients all the time about the worst case situation. Things do go wrong. Most of the time everything is fine. The problem is, unlike ARs, everyone is different. A blood vessel in the wrong place and one kidney left! I think everything will be fine, the docs are getting you ready just in case. Good luck!

Jim If all goes well, I may actually be out by then, but I will have a week lay up time here before flying home. You know where I'm staying and have the number... Others can get the info from it Grin&Barrett, DonR or jimmybcool if wanted, but I won't post it publicy since it's not my phone -- they do have my permission to give it out though!

So when you get out will you be laid up for days, or is a day at the range a possibility towards the end of the week?
BTW, I am having trouble finding your number. Uhhh, could you resend it (he says with embarassment). I think a day out will do you good when you;re up to it. BTW, remember bottoming out leaving the shoot? Well, the trailor hitch is OK, but NOW I know why I can hardly swing the spare tire out of the way. LOLs James PS - trust your doctors. Mayo is as good as it gets. |

The doc at Mayo's was concerned enough to seek additional consult -- He said it's in the worst possible location! My left kidney is 100% though, so if I have to lose 1, I should still be okay... |

Damn, I thought I was the only one that liked the Bee Gees. You they have a new album coming out in the first week of May. Yes I did say a new album.
Anyways good luck man. When you're in recovery, grab the nurses asses, they love that. Really. They may slap you but its only cause they wanna make sure the drugs are wearing off. |

He's had enough Demerol. I think he'd rather do without the pain.

Hang tough....you'll be done with it before you know it's started. I had a Kidney Stone operation in the past year. I thought I was done but I listened to the doctors and everything turned out fine.BTW-Child birth would be a cake walk compared to what I went through for two weeks.....Hang in there!

Scratch I'm staying at the bottom of the mountain with my folks, but have been up to my brothers quite a bit this past week. I got fried ([i]sunburnt to a crisp[/i]) hanging out in his pool yesterday. Margarittas and BBQ fixed everything though! You know you always have a place to stay out here, should you elect to trek on over... It would be great to see an old friend. |

Good luck; I know what you're going through. No REALLY, I know...I'm on standby for kidney surgery at Johns Hopkins. Not the same problem, but I'll likely lose part of my left kidney at the very least.
My prayers are with you. |

I spoke to Tim after today's surgery. They were not able to take out the effected portion so they are going to schedule another surgery later this week to remove the kidney.
Looks like he will be there longer. |

Hey guys, I just got off the phone with Tim and it wasn't good. The surgery didn't go as planned, they nicked a blood vessel and had to stop. So now they are having to keep an eye on internal bleeding. From the way Tim talked it looks like they are going to have to take the kidney out. So the prayers are needed and appreciated even more now. I'll post any more info I get on the new surgery as soon as I get it.
