Title: In the Hospital With a Big Kidney Stone and Infection
Post by: Joe Sermarini on May 04, 2022, 01:51:04 pm
If you sent me an email or called and I have not answered, it is because I am in the hospital with a big kidney stone and a staff infection in the blood. Its not going to kill me but it probably would have if not for modern medicine. I hope to be out on Friday, but there are a lot of things that have to go right for that to happen. I am in a fog from painkillers and cannot add new coins from here, so not great for business. Please support the shop by shopping. Thanks.

Telesphorus was the god of convalescence who "brought to fulfillment" recuperation from illness and injury. He was depicted on ancient coins as a young dwarf wearing a wide cloak and low hood or Phrygian cap, and sometimes holding a scroll or tablet in his hands.  His name means "the accomplisher" or "bringer of completion" in Greek.

I am finally home. I have another surgery and a couple weeks of recovery left, but they will be at home (I hope).

Good news, there's no place like home to recover.

Glad to hear you are home, much better place to recover. Best wishes for a timely recovery!

I am finally back at work today. It has been a rough month. The kidney stone was painful. The staff infection was not, but I was shocked when I Googled it to learn that my blood infection type is 80% fatal without treatment and still potentially fatal with treatment. I am probably in the clear now.

Not adding coins to the shop for three weeks has meant very very low sales this month. Please take a look at the old stuff and try to find something you would like to buy. Without a very big bump in sales in the next week, I will be taking money out of my personal accounts to pay business expenses this month.

I am pleased to hear that you are almost fully recovered. I didn't realise the infection you had was so serious, it will be a great relief to you and your family that you got through it all okay.
I wish you well.

Alex.

Wow, I was unaware that you were laid-up, Joe.  Glad to hear you're back and recovering.  Think I'll make an early layaway payment on your behalf.
