About to get on a plane for a few hours. Did enough and gathered enough info this weekend to write a novel. But that’s a whole other story. A lot to follow up on after Friday’s screening. It’s too early for anything much to happen or do. I’m sure all hell will break loose while I’m in the air and can’t do anything about it…
6:40 P.M. PST
Just found out I need emergency eye surgery. Developing…

Seriously dude, don’t drop some heavy shit like that and leave us hangin.
January 14th, 2008 at 7:49 pmDollard, you’re falling apart.
Anything to do with your previously mentioned “condition” from your time in Iraq?
January 14th, 2008 at 8:01 pmPat,
Do what you have to do, you’ve got plenty of work ahead of you and your health going to shit isn’t going to help that. Rest, recover and Charlie Mike!
January 14th, 2008 at 8:32 pmTorn retina. Surgery at 3 PM. I’ll give the whole story tomorrow. But I’m growing blinder by the minute
January 14th, 2008 at 10:21 pm“Torn retina. Surgery at 3 PM.”
Our thoughts are with you!
January 14th, 2008 at 10:53 pmGood Luck Pat,
So, are you going to look like a pirate for a while?
Do the docs know if this was from previous trauma?
Good Luck, thoughts and prayers are with you.

January 15th, 2008 at 4:17 amTorn retina?!!! WTF Pat
I HATE it when I have to say;”Told ya”.
Figure this might have to do with your history of trauma back in Iraque and all the flying (cabine-pressure)recently.
A weak spot cab rupture sooner or later.
Thank God it was discovered in time and you went into surgery a.s.a.p. There’s no fooling around with a condition like this, might leave you blind at the eye when not treated in time.
At this moment you’re probably recovering in a hospital bed, staying leaveled as horizontal as possible for at least 12 hours. And I hope you asked the most sexy nurse around for a sponge-bath
What I do know, you’ll handle the after-math (te pain and the pirate-look) in true marine-style.
Get well soon sweetie.

January 15th, 2008 at 5:07 amI have a feeling the torn retina was from a more recent happening . . . like when the car was totaled in one of your previous posts not so long ago and . . . I was afraid to ask.
Hope you are on the mend now Pat and getting the best of care!
