I got an e-mail back from his mom and apparently someone else wrote her first and she said she was going to have them do it. She mentioned the person's real name, but not screen name, so I don't know who it is. I'm sure they'll do a fine job.

That was me... I apparently wasn't clear in my email to her saying I'd let the board know. She thought I meant the poll. oops!
So.... poll away!

Mark is in the hospital . . . but does not have access to a computer? Hasn't he ever watched House? Hospitals have computers everywhere! I question his commitment to his Boardal responsibilities . . .

Just kidding! Thanks to Mark and Mom for letting us know what's up, so we wouldn't worry. I hope you feel much better soon.

I hope they can perform the procedure laparoscopically, as was done on me. In my case, I didn't even need to stay overnight and I was walking around in relative comfort almost immediately. Of course, I wasn't in the middle of an attack at the time, so inflammation wasn't an issue. --Bob

Is he in a hospital wing named after Jim Nabors?

I believe he's naming it "Friday".

Just saw on Facebook that he's out of the hospital. (Two weeks!?! with pancreatitis as well as the gallstones. Ouch!)

We're glad you're out, Mark!
