Dear Pancho: (My sick, sick, sick right kidney) Let's talk!

Hope everything’s gone well with your bad riñón, Beck

good luck becks!

and now we wait…

I’m pretty sure that the names are a reference toa 1983 album (and song) by Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson.

No updates, but I’m having such a lousy day that perhaps the Fates will get tired of dumping on me so they leave Beck alone.

Shouldn’t it be Villa?

Sorry you’re having a bad day, dropzone. You’re long past due for a really terrific day.

No, Steely Dan released Gaucho in 1980.

Huh? Not a single ‘504 Gateway Time-Out’ since Beck logged off. Coincidence?

:stuck_out_tongue:

Good thoughts at Beck and successful easy eviction thoughts at Pancho.

:smiley:

I was gonna say it’s that ‘denial of service’ thing** Beck** had goin on, but I spoke too soon.
I just got a 504.

I’ve got my fingers crossed for you too, Beck

From Li’l Wrekker:

Mother did fine in surgery. She’s in recovery. They are getting her ready to move her to ICU til her blood sugar has settled down. We’ll get to see her 2x2 at that time. Further updates later.

That’s good news!

Yeah, great news!

Nice to hear!

Outstanding! Thank you for the update, dropzone!

More from LW:

We were able to visit Mother for a few minutes…My sister and I went in first.

Mother is agitated and hungry. She asked about the dope. It took me a few minutes to understand she meant the message board. She got angry because we laughed about that. I assured her I sent an update.

She’s flat on her back and uncomfortable. She looked good to me.

We are relieved it’s over, to say the least.

Wow, great news! LW: Give her our love.

Note to LW: (if you please, DZ)

Tell our beloved Bekkers that “uncomfortable” merely means she is alive!

And that is always always good news!

Yay, Beck! I’m touched she thought of us so soon after waking up. And I hope she gets the green light to eat soon.

Thanks for the update, dropzone!
