Just thinking of Wally and hoping he’s OK. Isn’t today the surgery day?
Here’s hoping all goes well…

Yes Zette, he’s in the hospital for surgery today. I believe TVeblen knows more… an exact time maybe?
Good luck, mate!

I think he had an early time. I’m sure everything will go well for him. He has seemed in pretty good spirits.

Can’t wait for his return to hear the wild stories he has about all the nurses. After that cybersex experience, I am sure it will be priceless!

I really try to be good but it just isn’t in my nature!

I feel pretty safe in saying that Wally would be happy with all of the good wishes Dopers are sending is way. I also feel pretty safe in saying he would be disappointed if we didn’t find a way to turn this thread towards the absurd and tawdry…
So strike up the cheesy 70’s porn soundtrack, send in the swedish nurses, and let’s all start having some fun with those bags of saline just lying around.

Wally is in my thoughts too!
Someone needs to find some truly ourtrageous and funny quotes or web sites for him to open up the moment he gets back!

I really admire the fact that he’s been funny and cheerful lately, not whining and starting “oooh, poor me” threads right and left. Good for you, Wally!
All us atheists have our godless fingers crossed for you.

Here’s to hoping they put a nice, rare, thick, juicy, bloody, meaty-red-and-cool slab of steak on that tray of yours when surgery’s over. 🙂
We all know how you love your rare steaks.

Wally’s gonna do just fine. When do you think we’ll hear from him? I’ll wager 5 days.

I have thought about him and his family all day.
If our wishes mean anything…he will be fine.

Thinking of you Wally.
If anyone hears anything from or about him, or his family. Please let the rest of us know.
