Grumpy in the Hospital
« on: June 19, 2007, 01:15 PM »

I'm sure we've all heard from other sources, but just wanted to pass it on.

Grumpy is in the Hospital.  Apparently from a blood clot in his leg.     :sick:



Get better Grumpy. :grouphug2:

Although I already told you on game.. thanks Bright for posting this!  Lame duck, posted to the thread "over there" and then started thinking about the chat Gnome and I had just a few hours before he finally gave in and went to the ER.  So I forgot to post here.

I will be calling him tomorrow, and giving him the riot act he needs for chatting with me in the middle of the night instead of going to the ER right then! :mad:  Silly gnome! :grouphug:

Dara spoke with him today, and has updated her thread to say he is on antibiotics too, as the leg is infected.  Will post an update tomorrow, unless Dara beats me, and posts here too.  ;)

Update as promised  :)

I just got off the phone.  He sounds so very tired, I didn't stay long. 

He is on two blood thinners for the clot, an antibiotic for the infection and a lot of pain meds.  They will check again for the clot either tomorrow or Friday.. with the goal of sending him home Friday.  But even when home, he will need significant time to recover enough to be able to be on the computer.

But he wants everyone to know he is alive, and will be back to roaming the vmk gardens soon enough.

He also said thanks for all for the well wishes!

I will continue to update as we talk again.  :)

And then give him a swift kick in the ass, for being a pain in the ass.   :mad:

Update time again.

I just spoke with Grumpy.  He sounds SO very much better today.  Nowhere near as tired as he was yesterday, and he even cracked a few of his gnome jokes!

He is anxious to see the doctor this afternoon to find out if he can go home tomorrow.

Again, he sends his thanks to all well-wishers!

Go Go Grumpy!!  :cheerleader:

Well it's about time he stopped feeling poorly, we can't have no sick gnomes hanging around here.

Update.  This just in from Dara who just spoke with him.. I shall try him later.

Quoted from her Dis post:
On the phone with Grumpy as I type this.  The clot has not gone away as they
thought it would have.  It now looks as though he will be there until Saturday
or Sunday.  Doctor says it may be day by day, possibly as late as Monday. [END Quote]


Poor Gnome.  I will keep updates going over the weekend.
