I have been released from the hospital. This time I went to the Mayo Clinic and they have correctly diagnosed me and treated me. I think this will be last of the hospitalizations for me. The last place released me with a "just thank god you are better, and should not have any more problems". That lasted just more than a week before I relapsed. This time, I had my wife drive me to the Mayo Clinic instead of going to the local branch hospital that shoved me to their main hospital.

Anyway, I'm back (again).

Welcome back welcome back welcome back. And best wishes to your wife, it's tough on everyone.

Getting to the Mayo Clinic sounds to me like a very good move. But then I grew up in Minnesota.


Keep healing!

Wonderful! I've mentioned before that I hold the Mayo Clinic in high regard after some family experiences similar to yours. These days I wouldn't consider taking anyone in my family anywhere but to Mayo to treat a serious medical condition.

Ben is hoping to play in tomorrow's BBF Indy (2PM ET, 1800 GMT). Let's all try to show up to give him our best.

Just caught up on this now. Sorry to hear all the troubles you've been through and very glad to hear you have it beat!
Maybe see you in Vegas, I arrive tomorrow.
