They (the doctors) found out his hand was broken, and that was the cause of much of his discomfort. Unfortunaty, it took them several days to bother to X-Ray it to discover that. He’s in a cast now and his pain levels are reported to be much lower. There was talk about some kind of paralysis, but Beck thinks that was because they never bothered to check his hand. Again, an update. Approved by the source.
Thanks @Gatopescado for the updates. I miss Beck’s presence, but she has to do what she has to do. And that’s what’s important.
Well, she just doesn’t have time to post here. And she says she got logged off and forgot her password (whatever she uses on the road). Got it written down somewhere in her ‘office’. Says she’ll look for it when she gets back home.
Not an update, just a post. Feel free to flag at will!
Thanks for the updates, Gatopescado.
Yikes!
I hope his medical care otherwise is better than that.
Thanks much for updating, Gatopescado.
Thanks for the updates, Gatopescado. Fwiw, I didn’t know she especially liked Taco Bell, and when that post showed up as flagged in the mod queue, I thought it was a tasteless joke about her being sick due to eating at Taco Bell. My guess is that’s why it got flagged, too, although I don’t know.
Now that you’ve explained it, I’m going to unhide it if I can.
Best wishes to you and your son, Beckdawrek.
Yes, thanks for the updates, Gatopescado.
Not sure either. Maybe they thought it was an ad. Forget it.
Just a data point from one of the teeming millions who doesn’t follow Beck’s adventures extremely closely, but admires her and of course wishes her and her loved ones a speedy return to health and normality:
@Gatopescado’s well-meaning but terse post that got apparently got flagged read to me as a slightly nasty joke. I didn’t flag it because I’m aware that I’m not familiar enough with Beck’s life to know if it made sense, in an affectionate, positive way, to those who know her tastes better. But I did misread it and wonder why Gatopescado seemed to have posted something so sour.
Anyway, it was all apparently a misunderstanding, so I hope Gatopescado can forgive the flaggers and realize that their motive was no doubt affection for Beck.
Ditto to Carol.
I didn’t flag it. But viewed in isolation by somebody who knows nothing of Gato’s IRL connection to Beck it looks like an off topic tasteless joke while everyone else is offering condolences, hugs, prayers, etc., about what’s decidedly not a joking matter.
I’m happy it’s all straightened out now. And doubly happy that my initial impression was wrong.
She’s eating at Cracker Barrel today.
Thanks for the updates, Gatopescado.
Enjoy your Cracker Barrel meal, Beck!
I’ve never flagged anyone, so it ain’t me, babe, but I can see how frustrating that would be, Gatopescado. Thanks much for the updates.
Yikes on son’s broken hand going undiagnosed for so long.
Glad Beck has had some little joys along the way. She’s our Taco Belle.
I’m very late to this, but I’m thinking about you, too!
And more fun than a barrel of crackers!
(See, my belief is that she’ll get through this, stop back here… and read through this thread. And finally have a good laugh!)
Bringing this one forward, so we don’t forget our good friend Beck.
Missing you, Beck. Come back to us when you can.
“Forget our good friend Beck”? NEVER!
I will think of Beck every time I see a bigfoot postcard.
I think of her every time I’m in the supermarket and I see corndogs.
