Bittersweet day for me

[Stout]

My day began two hours before it was supposed to, when my mother called to say that dad had chest pains and she had just called 911. The day ended for me with the greatest Cardinal's game I have EVER witnessed. That includes the Dallas playoff victory. In between, thankfully, we quickly discovered the chest pain was just a symptom of something lower, and he has bad constipation. All tests are negative and they hope getting him to crap (hopefully as much as the Panthers did on the field) will get 'er done. So after the game he gave me a quick congratulatory phone call from the hospital. Bittersweet, but I think it all worked out in the [rear] end

Dr Pepper,glad he is stable.

Feed him whatever the Panthers had for their pre-game meal!

Best wishes for your dad Stout. We had a niece burn her hand really badly, during the Pats game. Its so quickly that all this Cardinals fanaticism can be put into perspective in one single second. We ended up in the ER and the burn unit and I didn't worry about that game again ever really. She's going to be alright with a lot of rehab. Anyway, I'm glad your father is going to be okay and that the Cardinals won for you.

Best wishes for a satisfying bowel movement Papa Stout.

I had a awful day today and it was also a little bittersweet. One of the most painful days of my life was today. Saw my brother in a coffin and felt like **** all week. To much pain this year with losing my grandfather and both dogs then my brother dies. My family did come over after the viewing and watching this game did get our minds off of all the reality was going on around us.

Billy if you are out there I love you so much. Will always cherish are memories together and look after my two nieces. Rest in piece

Holy **** man. So sorry to hear that. Your brother and your family will be in my family's prayers. Stay strong and know your brother is feeling better than you or I right now.

I appreciate it. It's hard and I will make it through and I realize suicide or any of that stuff is not the way I want to go. My heart is really just in a lot of pain and it has been hard to hold on. When it all comes down to it life is short, and you must enjoy it, and live it to the fullest.

 

[Brian in Mesa]

Wow.

Keeping these families in our prayers.

My Sincerist condolences on your loss ThunderCard. Life and Loss rages on in the best of times. May the Good Shepherd Bless Your Brother and lead him through the Valley and keep you and yours in his providence.

Hope everything is fine, Stout.

BTW - useless trivia fact of the week, Larry Gelbart (from Your Show of Shows fame) had the same problem and was forced to miss the first airing. The hospital billed him $2,000 in medical fees. Henceforth, to Larry, it became known as "A Case of the $2,000 farts".

Thanks for the condolences.

Many of you probably do not realize this, but we tailgated with a lot of people on this board from 88-02 at SDS. We hung out and drank with a lot of different people on the entire North side of the stadium by the river. Lot of good times and we meet so many people over the years.

We were seated at the 45 yard line of the Cards 18 rows up and 7+8 seats in. I want to say we were in section 7, but it was also years ago so I could be wrong.

Dammit. I hope that you and your family feel better, and I am sorry for your loss.

 

[CardLogic]

ThunderCard, I am truly sorry to hear about the loss in your family!

You have already said it best though:

When it all comes down to it life is short, and you must enjoy it, and live it to the fullest.

Keep you spirits up!

Dang man, I'm sorry to hear that. Puts it all sadly into perspective

Stout, let me fly out to your dad a machaca burrito from Rosita's, I won't skimp on the green salsa which is hotter than h#ll. He'll be cleaned out in 24 hours and won't trust a fart for a week; at least that's what it does to me.

LOL He's the crazy, loves-hot-stuff guy that would look at Satan and scoff 'that ain't hot'.

The good news is that they dosed him and he took a dump He's home now and ready for the Stillers game.

 

[NeverSayDieFan]

Hey! Stout & ThunderCard....

Prayers for your you & your families. I hear ya' on the bittersweet-part. I lost my mom about (20) years ago. She was a GOOD one. At the risk of being "preachy", I'll share this...One of His "promises" is that's He's close to the broken-hearted. After all, He's been there. Take Care! Mark

 

[Skkorpion]

Stout and Thunder, hang in there.
