Well,that Wild Man of Abdominal Surgery went another round today and came through well ! He's reportedly recovering in his room as we type.

He's got more tuning up ahead,but his Daughter reports that they're heading the 'Ol Boy in the right direction,one competent step at a time !

Will post more when more is known. Thanx,Gang ! :up:

Abdominal surgery? If Fred's getting one of those six pack abs installed , Im afraid he's gonna get all the action over at the pool. We don't stand a chance at the dance :no2:

Glad to know the nurses won't have to babysit him for long. Sure hope the surgery went fine and recover is a mission, not a dream. Winter didn't finish him off...tough as nails, but at least One Marine won't be eating barbed wire for breakfast any more. I told him it was tough on the tender tissues of his tiny touch....... Suppose they piped up 316 stainless this trip of just a 'Natural Tissue' exhaust?
Hang some headers on that bag, and you will look like a top fuel machine!!!!! You can be a hit at the Scottish games!!! I know....don't make him laugh, it will hurt too much!!
Wishing you a speedy recovery, and thanks to your daughter for taking good care of a dear friend.

Well,talked to the 'Ol Spanker tonight,and this is about the best he's sounded Post-Op compared to all the other Surgical Events. Don't get me wrong,he's been in a tussle,to say the least. He'll be finding out just how long he'll be stuck there,and he'll be filling You all in on what future moves have to be made.

This Winter didn't kill him,so let's see what this Spring/Summer holds ! Here's to FFred's Future,Gang ! :up:
