Many of you have been kind enough to express a concern for my health. I don't have enough time to answer everyone individually, so I thought it would be more helpful to let everyone know what happened here.

On May 31st, I was calmly eating a bowl of cereal at about 11 PM when suddenly I experienced severe pain. I thought it was a cramp at first, but after enduring the excruciating pain for about two hours, I decided to call 911. The ambulance came right away, and I was rushed to a nearby hospital. Initially, I was functioning well enough to have a Cat-Scan, but around 3 AM my blood pressure began to drop alarmingly. I was asked for the names of my next of kin and offered the Last Rites. The next couple of hours are a little foggy, but I awoke with a nasal-gastric tube in place (yuk!) which prohibited me from eating or drinking for the next five days. I gradually came "back to life" and eventually healed myself enough to go home within a week. The official diagnosis was an abdominal blockage with potentially fatal complications, but I personally feel this was a reaction of my body to extreme stress. Both my parents are not doing well, and the day before the attack I got laid off at work.

I have decided to offer a short "how-to" for the Nude Day Contest, and will have another new story posted within a week. I've also started reading some of the Nude Day contest entries and am commenting on them. Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers....so far they've worked!!!

Sack :heart: :rose: :kiss:
 
Welcome back, Sack, and I'm glad to see you back and kicking. *hugs*
 
kick, kick.......

Hey, my recent PCs have been downright nice!!!
 
:rose: My prayers and thoughts are still with you Dave, they have been since the first you told me about your parents. If there is anything I can do, give me a shout. I'm glad you're back with us though. Don't over do.

:rose: :kiss: :heart:
 
Sack's back!!!!! :cathappy:

sorry to hear about what happened :( The mind-body connection is very strong, actually... and I trust your intuition...

And I'm glad you healed yourself... :rose:

welcome back.
 
Scary how quickly something like that can happen. Glad you came through it well.
 
Be well, dear Sack. You are one of the kindest people I know here. Coincidentally I just shared to following in a PM to Aurora:

' From one of my all time favorite Lit posts ;) : "Roxanne Appleby is a superb talent and bears watching, as does Aurora Black. I marvel at their effortless craft, and read their stories over and over again." - Sack '

:D
:devil:
:eek:
:heart:

Naturally that one stuck out for me ( :rolleyes: ), but it was just one in a litany of equally kind comments about many authors in the 2005 Winter Holiday contest. Hugs to you, Sack.

"Nice guys finish last", right???


Sack :eek:

I made my way into a Sack poem, I did!

Getting your own troll is just fun.

I finally got to witness one in action. Someone actually reading them all and giving them horrible comments and a 0.

It's just more fun than being anonymously trolled just to lower your numbers.
 
Glad to know things are getting better Sack. Please do stick around for awhile...

Well, you know what they say...

How sad ain't the truth,
that thoughout their youth;
the nice guys finish last.

But in the long run
they are so much more fun
than guys that finish fast.

:cool:

Good to see ya again.
 
Glad to hear of your recovery Sack. One day I may be in the same fix and I need all the positive reinforcement I can get.
 
Hi Sack,
Tried to get hold of you way back - selfishly missing your comments. Daniella told me what had happened with your parents and I was kind of relieved that you were taking the time out to care for them. Hadn't realised you'd been so ill yourself and it's great to see you've recovered. Stress is a terrible thing, easy to say 'take things easy', sometimes we need the personal shock to insist that's exactly what we do. So you've had the shock - now take it easy, you're one of the good people. :rose:
