Hope you have received our team message and pic from SIHH. Yes I could not agree more : Carpe diem !!! Presently writing this post from my bed in hospital, waiting for the surgeon to operate me within an hour. Quite stressing waiting moments before an ost...
MikeH, I hope you are recovered from the anesthesia and (painful) osteotomy by now. Why are our PuristS Paris members in hospital at the same time? All of you: Get well soon! MTF
The operation actually lasted longer than expected and they released me quite late. In the evening I was still under the effect of the anesthesia so I was ok, but yesterday (and this night) have been terrible. They had warned me to expect the worst in ter...
According to the surgeon the operation went ok, but I did not expect the pain would be so acute after an osteotomy. Hopefully it won't last too long and things will be better soon. Cross fingers for me as I can't do it anymore, my right hand is totally im...
...under my duvet and waiting for the pain to decrease. The only occupation that I found to keep my brain thinking of something else is to browse here on my ipad. Hope I get better soon but it's damned looong!
I have a close friend who had a TIA 5-6 years ago. I was the first one to attend to her when she called for help. Now, she continues to be healthy and happy. So will you Cheers, CL
When I read the first line of your post, I immediately felt nervous. Thank goodness that you are okay and have experienced little after effect. I'm sorry that you had to start off the new year in this way but it can only get better from here. Please take ...
They are very important for me. I keep improving and I expect to be able to write again soon. It can be positive to train again my brain and articles about watches are in this context an excellent way to progress! Thanks and see you soon! Fx
