Thanks alot, Carol. Things went so well, we dont have to go back tommorrow. Next stop is Tuesday for Josh's ear reconstruction surgery. He had an infection that destroyed one or two of the tiny little major bones that play such a crucial part in hearing. He has less than 40% hearing in that ear, and the last two times theyve went to fix it, they found more infection and had to remove that rather than repair what they could.
Its gruesome. Without going into detail, hes pretty much had his ear removed and laid acorss his cheek while they remove infection. Twenty something stitches inside and out to put it back, and then playing the waiting game to see if the infection has come back.
All looks well this time. He just had a CT scan and a major physical and for all they could tell without opening him back up, the infection is gone.
Im hoping they can give him some of his hearing back this time. it breaks my heart everytime he says 'whatd they say?' on TV when everyone else heard just fine.
Anyways...im bringing this thread down!
How bout some good news?!
I just got offered a pier with an 8" steel pipe that has a 12x12" base and a 10" round top base that stands at 36" for $190.00!
Im gonna take it! For the price, Id be a fool to turn it down, considering the same type piers I was looking at were about $600.00-800.00 somewhere, not counting shipping!
