I’m still here

The operation took over four hours on Tuesday.

Lucky me. I caught pneumonia and Cellulitis and lots of fluid on my belly.

So far I’ve not seen much change in my belly as it’s so swollen.

I’ll be in hospital a few more days yet.

That's great Brett. Really pleased for you that at last Bertha has been given her marching orders!. I expect that you will be seeing daily improvement as the swelling goes down :-) :-) Take it easy when you get home, no lifting of any kind! No burning the midnight oil at the casino either! Hope you're back home very soon. All the best. Alf

Thank goodness it’s nearly over Bob! Yukky pneumonia - hope that clears fast for you! And, as freddy says, I’m sure tummy will soon be back to its usual sixpack...

Good luck

Looks like Bertha just wanted to send you a good bye gift.

Sending good wishes that all clears up quickly and you get home with no regrets for saying bye-bye to Bertha.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery,

Well Brett, you never do things by halves do you!! It's got to be bigger and badder!! I'm so glad you've come out the other side. Try and stick to the programme, and get well soon. As the lads said, soon the six pack will be back, and then on the beach and you'll be fighting off all the admirers!!

Look after yourself

Brett, Great News 👍👍👍, but was it a painful divorce? Trust you to get pneumonia and cellulitis, you old drama queen 🤣🤣🤣. I bet you got them on purpose, so you could stay there with your dishy doctor.

All the best for a speedy recovery, and have fond memories of Bertha😁😁😁

Take care,

David

Mines called Alien it’s only grapefruit size so far but loves to rear it’s head when I sit up in the bath. Hope you get better and better, I guess it’ll take a while to shrink the space Bertha occupied.

I’m out of hospital now. Lots of OxyContin 😂 lots and lots of pain. I think I’m over the worst of it. Bending down 1000 times a day is not good for the stomach. Bloody puppies. Sold three now and two left.

Anyone know of a OxyContin rehab facility 😂

At least I can go back work as a male escort.

😂 😂 😂

That’s been a long haul Bob. For some reason I thought you’d be out sooner but thinking about it sensibly it was bound to be a big operation! Glad you’re home.

Don’t you think it’s a tad soon to be picking that up again.

🤔.

😁

Bob.

in reply to ThreeSmiles

I see your awake early again and you have work to go too .....Grrrrr or is that Errrrrr

I'm lecturing you now who's not 100 per cent well ..... gotcha 🤣🤣🤣

in reply to Brett11

Please send male escort photo when your recovered 🤣🤣🤣🤣

in reply to Brett11

Brett I agree with Milo ..... please take it easy as surely it's to soon to be doing all that bending!

What pups do you have ??? Oh I'm not looking for one just curious!

Take care my friend and behave like I have too .....🤣

We have five six week old Border Collies.

I have to bend down 100 times a day to pick up their poop and try and teach them where they can poop.

I’ve sold three now. Hopefully the last two will go soon.

in reply to Brett11

I'm my goodness! I'm so glad you dont live near me as I adore Border Collies ! Had a peppered colour one called Pepper of course for years who was totally adorable .

What part of the UK are you in,?

in reply to Brett11
