Hey Larc and Zazu! Glad Zazu is home. It sounds like she'll make a good recovery. Your a good husband Larc, just what the doctor ordered! We have a card for you guys, I will be sending it out today, Tink has been in the hospital and is coming home today, so I have been tied up with her care the last week or so, but we'll be sending it off. Take care and Welcome Home!!!!!

the local needs part dealt with this need.
too many are saying we don't want to confide in the elders and let them shepherd us.
perhaps, if the elders realized that they are nothing but a pain in the butt, they would just leave everybody alone!
Hey Minimus! That was exactly what I requested of the Elders who were trying to get Tink and I to meet with them. Their whole sentiment was to rely an Jehovah, attend meetings, study,study,study,pray,pray,pray. and all your troubles would dissappear! I told them she was diagnosised with Bi-Polar disorder and that the doctor would give them a letter stating that she was not in a mental state for being involved with stressful discaplinary council, especially from non-trained, non-professional men such as themselves. It goes in one ear and out the other with them. They are so programmed to only use the societies guidelines for handling matters. They never once showed, either in their speach or their facial expressions, any compassion what-so-ever! I finally said the above words. Leave us alone, Let me handle my family situation the way I see fit. We DA'ed a few weeks later.

Hey DJ and everyone...Tink had her surgery at 8:00am this morning and was through by around 9:30am. They were able to do it laprascopically and she is being kept overnight tonight. I'll be bringing her home some time tomorrow. She's in alot of pain right now but she did very well. The doctor did not have any difficulty with the stone lodged in her bile duct and everything looked good. I just got home from seeing her around 9:00pm CT. I'll keep y'all posted more tomorrow. I'm gonna get some shut eye...been up since 3:30 this morning. We'll hollar at ya later.

We're Fixin' to leave in afew minutes. The Hospital is only 15 min away from our home so I can check in and out on our Pup's and Birds. Dj...I'm a great cook...Nothing to worry about there. The Doc said he would do it Laproscopically and would only do open surgery if after he starts he feels that the stone which is lodged in her bile duck has moved too close to her liver, but he seems to feel that is unlikely. Thanks for all your prayers and concerns. I'll take the best care of our little Tink that I know how. Dede...she's already spoiled rotten...now she'll be worse if you can imagine that...LOL
I'll be posting later to update you all. Thanks again friends!!!!!

The doctor had told us to be prepared that he may need to do open surgery because one of the stones has lodged in the bile duct. He said it was only a slight chance, I'm not worried, she's doing fine and is ready to get it over with. Thanks Lilacs.
just thought i'd update you all on the latest.
finally was seen by a psychiatrist.
she seems to think i may have a form of bi-polar disorder.
Songmistress, Glad to hear your Hubby is supporting you. That will help you alot. Take care of yourself and keep us posted. Feel free to e-mail Tink anytime, she was diagnosed as Bi-polar in 1999, she's been thru alot as well and may be able to share some of her experiences with you. She had friends help her along and that has made a big difference in her health. Hang in there.
