Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an intergral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on it's evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I appreciate your kind words and prayers. Basically due to infection in the kidney from stone that's grown for ten years I almost died. It's too big to go in the canal to the bladder. They did a temporary stint to help the infection. I'll admit i don't understand it all. I have tried to reply to all and apologize if I missed you. I was discharged today and have a lengthy recovery. Once I got home I have slept at least four hours and probably the most I slept since going in the hospital. I will have to have two surgeries, kidney stone & enlarged appendix in a few weeks after I finish antibiotics. My husband had a bad chest cold & I got it a day before going to hospital. That's not helping but I'm coping and able to treat now that I'm home. When I strong enough I will give my experiences being in the hospital. Mostly good and taken care of, only a few negatives. I had a chance to observe a lot and it's very different than back in 2008 when i had obgyn surgery. In three days I ate 1.5 individual containers apple sauce. I've never tasted such bad food. Wasn't fit for a wild animal. I'm very weak, hubby has to help me get up from sitting. Couldn't walk up steps with out his help when I got home. In the last three days my husband has been with me and helped with anything I needed. I'm truly blessed to have him in my life. Hopefully I'll be back by end of week to catch up on all the headlines. Feels like i've missed so much. Again thanks for prayers❤️
❤️🙏🏻 with each day comes renewed strength. We are all here to see you through this journey. We are the hands and feet of Jesus. If I had a connection to Trump I would have him give you a ring to brighten your day. Sorry I have no connections. But it’s the thought that counts, right?
Replying to your reply to my prayer request last month. Thank you so much.
