Gutted (literally)

[HomerJSimpson]

Just found out the date for surgery to repair my damaged pancreas is August 18th and that I'm going to have to miss the Belfry trip. As I've been waiting over a year for the date and given the improvements it will make I can't afford to try and move it.

Pretty hacked off right now

 

[TWM]

Well just get sorted. You can visit the Belfry next time.

 

[Imurg]

Tough break Homer
But if it improves the quality of your life then missing a golf trip is small change in the great scheme of things.

Good luck with it - and I hope they use a sharp scalpel!!

 

[Parmo]

Just think Homer, you can use your free Sharpie for the crossword whilst in hospital!!!

I would imagine its of very little comfort to him right now!! lol

Unlucky Homer, I missed out on a trip to Portugal last year becuase I put my back out at the range the day before we were due to fly

Horrible feeling!

I also missed a trip to Forest of Arden 2 years ago becuase i got the snip the day before we were due to go, and I didnt realise the dates were next to each other until a couple of days before!

 

[Parmo]

The snip you say.... You ok now lassie?

Does it hurt? I mean the snip not the missing trips.

Homer, there will be next year.

 

[KeefG]

Nah...more uncomfortable than anything else and a bit sore for a few days afterwards.

Its worth it though for bareback for the rest of my life and not worrying about the missus popping out anymore bin lids

 

[Parmo]

Is it a day job or an overnight stay in the hospital?

Homer, how long are you in for?

 

[birdieman]

Too much information!!

It depends whether you are a perv or not....

Go on

 

[Parmo]

Think I might have to get the snip do you have to stay overnight or is it an in and out job? Do you get knocked out or is it local?

 

[medwayjon]

The snip is a very quick in & out under local and can be done by many GP's. Mine does them.

 

[Gustavo]

Homer - I hope you make a swift recovery after your op, I'm sure you'll be back on the course quickly.

Parmo - My Mrs keeps offering to cut my knackers off, shall I ask her if she'll do yours ?

 

[Parmo]

How much does she charge?

 

[Dave3498]

I'll do it for any member of the forum. I've never done it before but I'm quite willing to have a go.

 

[Spoff]

You've had the snip, you should be very worried about the missus popping out more kids...

 

[vig]

or is it local?

What, you thinking of sending it away or summat
You'll be in the room with it

BTW
Tough luck Homer, your health gotta come first

 

[cm_qs]

Think I might have to get the snip do you have to stay overnight or is it an in and out job? Do you get knocked out or is it local?

Do you really want to play a round with only practice balls in your bag?

If so.. It's not even as bad as going to the dentist....No drills.

Local anaesthetic, 15 mins of the weirdest chat with a doctor you'll ever have , drive home, couple of days rest. Job done.


Homer - best of luck with the op.

 

[chipsandegg]

Bad luck Pal,
Sill, get urself right first, plenty of time for golf later

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Not sure of the full extent yet - still got to have my pre-op assessment where I find out the full story. I'm hoping its going to be keyhole and non-invasive but talking to a guy at the hospital from one of our Gastro wards he seems to think it'll be the full slice and dice.

If it is keyhole I reckon 3-4 weeks out max but maybe 6 if they open me up.
