I have returned - only to take some time off again
I got released from Vanderbilt Medical Center yesterday, where I had 2 tumors removed (both benign), and underwent more tests than you can shake a stick at. My transplant seems to be stable, and the warning signs seem to have been the result of gas bubbles in my abdomen. But I think everyone here already knew I was full of it.
However, I will be offline for a while longer, since I got home in time to find out that my brother in California died of a massive heart attack. So I'll be flying out to LA to give his eulogy on Saturday. As the eldest, it falls to me.

God bless Bit. I lost my brother to the exact same thing. I also eulogized, and it was the hardest thing i've ever had to do. Thoughts and prayers.
