What Tib said is correct... and it's on the site announcement...

If you enter an order now, and I don't get it out within 4 days, I'll issue a 15% discount code in the Shipping Notice. I'm doing that because I do still need a steady income flow, especially now. I've got a LOT of out-of-pocket expenses coming up.

Anyway... no update on when I'll get out of here. I was hoping today, but nobody with any authority has been by yet this morning. I did hear that they're thinking I won't need to wear the wound pump when I get out... it's not pumping out anything, apparently. I guess that's a good thing?

sure sounds that way! ;)

btw i'm in the process of talking a neighbor into an order. she's just starting out and not all that sure yet she'll last ;)

Just got bad news. I'm not going home today.

One of the strains that attacked my feet is MRSA, which means I'm going to be on IV antibiotics for a few weeks. :( So, they have to fit me with a walkabout IV inlet (my phraseology). They're also trying to get me in with a doctor who can continue to follow my case after discharge. I never did get around to getting a Primary Care Physician out there... guess that's going to be taken care of for me.

I hate hospitals. It's the best place to catch things like MRSA and the new one "CRE". I think they've sort of got a handle on MRSA but nothing works so far against CRE.

My boss and a friends wife both picked up MRSA from having surgery done. Did I mention I hate hospitals?

CDC - Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae - HAI

Notice the CDC calls them all "Healthcare Associated" Infections.

Oh no Deej! :(

MSRA is not something that you want to play around with. Well I guess any sort of infection is something that you don't want to mess with. At least it sounds like you caught it early and hopefully the antibiotics will clear everything up quickly. From what I read the MRSA might have been the cause of the necrotizing fasciitis.

I think a lot of people get MRSA and other infections in hospitals because when they are in a hospital they usually have an open wound or bad immune systems. Which is prime feeding for nasty bacteria and the like. It's not that hospitals are dirty or breeding grounds but when we go into them we are usually in a very weakened state. It sounds like Deej's infection may have started before the hospital if they found it in the wounds. Probably because of his immune system being compromised by the flu and diabetes.

It happens all too often. We live in a world full of invisible microbes. They feed off of our skin cells and oils, dust and food particles. We never take much notice, until one of the greedier microbes decide to make us sick or make a wound infected.

Anyways, feel better soon Deej. Then when you are better, I'm sure the orders will roll in. Take this time to rest and relax, to let your body and the medicine do their job. Even if this is an unwanted and unwelcome break, try to make the best of it.

When life hands you a crap sandwich, ask for some champagne to wash it down. :)

That's a bit of bad news Deej, hope you recover quickly, keep your chin up mate.

On the bright side, this Raspberries 'n' Cream I'm currently vaping is a sensational vape! Not sure if you have them in the US but it tastes exactly like a Raspberry Split Ice Cream.

sigh... and here come the order cancellations...

NOOOOooooo!!!

WTH man. Can their budgets be that tight? I could see maybe if I was down to 5ml and my last $5, but ya don't go kickin a man when he's down. :(

Other than first starting out, I don't think there's been an order I couldn't due without for a month or more if need be. Heck just order somewhere else if you're in a hurry, but ya don't have to cancel.

So, deej, what's best for you? If we order now, or save it until you are on the mend? I've been sitting on an order until I hear you are feeling better... I have no immediate need for juice (probably have several months worth in my storage drawer), I'm just out of some favorites of your stuff, and there are some more flavors I'd like to try. I would imagine that there are several other people in the same boat on this thread. Would you rather we put the order in now, with a note that there's no hurry, or wait until you are up and around?

Holy jeebus. Deej I know everything is new with the finding on your health, but I hope you are getting better with each passing moment. Please take the time for yourself and health's sake. I just informed my co-worker as well ( for some reason he refuses to join the forums). BTW, I found you a better in home nurse....

Sorry all I have been rather MIA. Been slammed at work with yet another acquisition and a blitzkrieg of major network upgrades.....and trying to get as much done before I take my daughter on vacation end of next week.
Congrats on the promotion Sonic! Although I might need to shy away from here as that means yet another mod is hanging around lol.

Spud...
