Hey everyone,

I apologise for my long silence, but I have been very ill. Early in October I caught a bad infection and was hospitalised. It turned out to be e. coli and it proved very resistant to treatment. They were forced to use an extremely strong antibiotic on me, and it sent me into a coma for thirteen days. When I woke up again I was so weak I could barely move. I spent another six weeks bedridden.

I am finally starting to improve again and am gradually becoming more mobile. I can move with the aid of a walker (HUGE improvement on a wheelchair) and I am currently under retraining. My doctor is optimistic about my recovery. At one point my kidneys stopped working but they are recovering, too. I suspect the load from that hyper-antibiotic was more than they could handle.

In any event, I am back and hoping to be at least somewhat active. I hope everybody here is well.

Best regards,

The Old Hack.

Well, there goes another dream of mine.

For someone who is chronically sleep deprived, spending two months in bed sounded like a good thing. I guess I was wrong.

Hope you're back to form soon.  There has been a notable lack of pedantic behavior recently in this forum.

Welcome back!  This scares me -- if you hadn't made it, we might never have known what happened.  Maybe you should PM your real-world phone number to one or two of us, just in case.  I'd be happy to exchange with you, I know you won't order too many pizzas in my name if I give you mine.  ;-)   And let us knowif there's anything we can do to help, real or virtual!
