In reply to the discussion: Well shit, cancer is back! [View all]lark
(23,097 posts)10. I am having an Anterior Disectomy & Spinal Fusion at 2 levels on 7/15.
I too will be out of it for awhile and probably not posting much for at least a few weeks, maybe longer. When I do get back, I'll be on drugs and probably irritable from all the things I'll have to be working through including pain, eating and mobility issues. I agree that I don't want to see people bashing the candidates when I get back and won't be in a good mood or very forgiving and promise to address those that do this. I will try to be polite, but when you are in pain and very limited, well, I can't promise that my frustration won't show through.

My wife went two rounds with cancer. Kicked its ass both times. Expecting you to do likewise!
