On the Mend
Been out of the hospital for a week, feel worse now than before going in! All these antibiotics, my teeth are even starting to hurt!
Three days a week I now have a Visiting Nurse come in and redress my wound and change the vac cartridge on my wound vac. That is after she pulls half my chest skin off with the tape!
Seen the plastic surgeon yesterday, he now wants me to see the wound specialists and there is talk about putting me in a hyperbaric chamber to speed heal this hole in my chest? Now they want to submit me to the bends!
I believe my summer is done for!
When this is all over I believe there could be a new gun in my future!

Glad you are doing better. If you recall, I spent time in the diving bell.
It may be boring but the hyperbaric chamber works. Lay there, watch tv and stay away from burritos.

Sounds as if you will have richly earned one.
I hope they can speed the healing.

Hang in and hope for the best?
Sorry, all I got.
If this therapy speeds up the heal, the vacuum drain is done with and you're off the antibiotics sooner?
Might be worth a try.
Whatever you, please... get well soon.

What kind of gun? This is a gun forum after all.
And here's praying for a speedy recovery, Captain Nemo.

The main thing is that you are still going in the right direction and getting better. Hang in check out what gun you might want to add to your stash.

The greatest thing about being on the mend?.... Heard from my surgeon yesterday and he has reconfirmed the lab reports....
No more infection....it's gone!
And most importantly there are still no further signs of Cancer!
CANCER SUCKS!!!
Vonn,,, One of these could be in my future, for some reason I always liked them?

Also, what is that? A Beretta? It's a classy looking piece.

I got lucky. A combat experienced registered nurse now working for the VA had my wounds fixed up very quickly. She had more potients, salves, exotic pads and such than you can shake a stick at. The debriding was the worst part.

My sister after a year of every cancer treatment they could put her through was told to make her will and arrange for hospice. She said the heck with this and researched an alternative medical way to keep from dying. She found gluten products kill the immune system. She went 100% gluten free and now she is cancer free and enjoying retirement. Her bout with cancer was in 2008. She beat their death sentence.

Man has been eating wheat bread since the dawn of civilization. Statistically cancer is the plague of the 20th century and beyond. Yes, cancer existed before that time, but it's incidence was very low. These 2 facts don't coincide. While I don't doubt what you say is true. Deleting gluten may increase cancer survival but I doubt it causes cancer.

For one the food we eat today is hardly even close to food people had available 100 years ago. Big industry has been using people as waste disposals for at least the last 50 years. Almost all food we have today has been stripped of most any beneficial nutrients while adding waste products and chemicals back in. Read the label on any food product and see how many ingredients are actually recognized as natural food.
For instance read the warning on your fluoride toothpaste and it states if swallowed seek medical attention. Read about what effect fluoride has on your pineal gland.
Does food create cancer, no but it sure can cause cancer to go haywire and does often kill people. From what I have read cancer cells are present in the body but when we get proper nutrition and care the cancer is kept in check. Oh BTW there has been natural cures for many types of cancer but the cures have been stuck in a file buried somewhere. Gee I wonder why that is? Never mind I think I know why.
I know of people that their kid was told his body was full of cancer and the doctors could do nothing more for him. The parents took their kid to Israel and his body was rid of any cancer. The doctors at the treatment center said under no circumstances let American doctors inject anything into the kid. Well sure enough at a check up shortly after getting back into the states the doctors said the kid needed some injection just to ward off any possible problems. The kid died in less than a few weeks after that. This is a true story and I had met the parents.
I knew a woman that was told she had weeks to months to live due to cancer final stages. She said the heck with this and she wasn't going to accept this prognosis of death. She through metaphysical practice lived many years longer without any cancer health issues. I met people that knew her when she had the cancer and commented how well she looked.
Cancer can be beat but main stream media will not talk about it. Do research and you just might be amazed the information that has been kept hidden. Thanks to the internet and many doctors that practice outside the AMA/FDA box we are now hearing about cures for all types of health issues.
I recently had a health issue that I could have dropped dead if I had just gone home and done what the doctor said to do. I had another problem and found out the prescription she wrote for me was known for the side effect I was experiencing. I did research on my blood test results and got my health back. No thanks to the doctor who barely paid any attention to the blood test results.
I am a big believer in naturopathic and alternative medical means of treating health issues. Whether others believe me or not is their problem not mine.
