Hi guys, thought I would start a new thread on this subject so as to keep postings from straying of topic.
Surgery went to plan & day 2 is seeing a reduction of pain & on the road to recovery.
Many thanks to all who posted well wishes. Catch you guys at the field when I am mobile again, even for just a chat.

Hi Wayne great to hear your going so well.Good idea about the new thread. I think the way things are going weather wise you will be back on the field by the time it dries out.I suspect you`ve arranged this but I just can`t workout how you did it.

This is a short-lived thread as I am now out of hospital recovering at home. It is amazing how many previously simple tasks now raise the pulse & push the pain button. Many thanks again to all the well wishers.
Lets hope this thread does not need to be used again in the near future but helps us keep tabs on those who fall ill enough to use it.

Hi, Wayne. Good to see you on the mend, with modern medicine these days recovery is a lot quicker.
Kind regards, Bob

Hi Pete, nice to hear from you.
I have been up and about, even went to indoor flying last night, courtesy of my chauffeur Steve Lange. Did not fly but was great to catch up with a few guys.
I am still on pain killers but their need is gradually abating. Got 27 stitches removed from my left leg today together with the depilatory wound dressing covering my sternum wound. Remind me to never contemplate waxing any of my hairy body parts.
I have had Margaret offer to drop me off at the field with a chair the next time our field is open for business & also look forward to a chinwag with my flying colleagues. Wont be long before I hope to also fly again.
Cheers,
Wayne.

Good stuff Wayne. If Margaret needs a break and you need a lift to or back from the field, just holler, happy to chauffeur, Im sure I'm not the only one either... just ask!
'Lack of transport' will not be accepted as an excuse for not coming down to the field!!

They say laughter is the best medicine, but it does not match up with the well wishes & offers of support from you guys.
This is what makes our club such a great club and a pleasure to be associated with.
Thanks guys.

It's a cheery title for a thread - definitely eye-catching.
Glad you got it all sorted though, Wayne - a lot of people don't get more than one bite of the proverbial! Now, I expect you'll be saving lots of money by not spending it on fags from here on in - very good news for HobbyKing!
See you at the field ... sometime.

Am back in Westmead again. Woke up this morning short of breath & chest pains. ECG & Echo showed OK. CT scan soon & overnight for observation. Not a good way for Margaret to spend her birthday :-(

Have fluid on lungs. Going to have them drained shortly. Hopefully that will do the trick.

Local anesthetic for inserting drain through side of chest not fully successfully. When finished pain levels through the roof & could barely breathe, thank god for morphine. Will continue to have pain until drain removed tomorrow. Will be relying on Endone & oxygen via nasal thingy for sleep tonight.
