Why I'm Somewhat MIA

[incrediBILL]

This isn't spider talk but I thought I'd drop a line in public and let people know why I've been quiet lately, just approving the threads but not really participating

Had a bad drug reaction earlier this year that set off a full body skin reaction that got worse and just kept spreading

Recently I was getting better but when they started taking me off some of the drugs and I had a nasty relapse and it looks like I'm heading to the hospital for a few days to get it under control

I'll still be peeking in and doing some stuff but it might be some time before I start contributing again

Just thought I'd let you all know I'm still here, take care

Get well ..tell the Docs ..Beer ( Guinness at least ) is medicinal..so is red wine ;-)

[incrediBILL]

They seem to get upset when I mix Vicodin with a beer or two and I don't get that.

Says right on the bottle "alcohol may intensify the effect" and I thought that was a helpful usage instruction, a good thing, and not a warning!

What do I know? :)

[mhansen]

Get well soon...

[Leosghost]

I've always mixed mine..same reason..vicodin and merlot ...mmmmmmmm ;-)

Was wondering where you where just yesterday. Perhaps we'll see you at pubcon.

[incrediBILL]

Not at this rate unless it's Pubcon Austin next year

[topr8]

[Pfui]

Onward and upward, mon ami. Onward and upward.

[Marshall]

Hi Bill,

Sorry to hear! Hope you come out of hospital fighting fit and ready raise hell again ;)

[tangor]

Hope you remember what to do after chasing nurses...


...say you're sorry!

[keyplyr]

Yikes, the only good thing about hospitals are the nurses. Speedy recovery!

[Mokita]

I don't understand ...

Isn't Pubcon starting November 8 this year? More than two months away.

Really hope you are not down and out that long!

[incrediBILL]

Yup.

Been dealing with this months now and just had about a month setback.

Very unlikely I'll make Pubcon Vegas

Not fun

Not good! Keep well and please come back very soon with your trademark fighting spirit.

[incrediBILL]

I'm baaaaaaaaaaaack

Just spent 9 days in a burn unit trying to get my skin condition under control and had some progress, moving forward slowly but I'm back and working a bit.

Thanks for all the kind words.

Time to have some fun!

[mslina2002]

Good to hear that you are on the mend.

[Mokita]

Welcome back!

[koan]

Glad to hear you're better, that didn't sound very pleasant. Between that and Panda, which was worse? ;)

[incrediBILL]

Panda was only annoying, this was painful, excruciating, ugh

[sem4u]

I am pleased to see that you are getting better Bill. Hope you make a full recovery. All the best.

[Pfui]

So good to 'see' you again! It's just not the same around here knowing you're not around here.

[dstiles]

Welcome back, Bill. Hope things get better for you!

[Wizcrafts]

Welcome back Bill. I hope the docs are able to get you healed so you can resume life as you know and understand it.
