A Long Hospital Stay
Just a short update on where I've been. I have been in the hospital pretty much since the 19th of February, with collapsed lung issue.
They released me yesterday on the 21st from the hospital, and I arrived home about 8PM. After getting settled I pretty much crawled into bed and slept.
I pretty much slept all day today, and hope to make it to town tomorrow to get my medications.
It will take me some time before I am back to my normal Hive activities, but I will fully return over time.
I have more to say but am just not up to it yet.

Thanks for the up-date @bashadow; some of us were worried about you. I did just receive your replies as well from past inquiries about your health.
I've not been posting much lately either, but I have been curating and leaving some comments in places.
My thoughts are with you while you fully recover.
They don't deliver where I am at, to far away. feeling a lot better, but got lots of muscle to rebuild, lost a lot of strength leading up to and while in the hospital.
Sleep is something I am becoming good at again after leaving the hospital.
They really don't let people sleep there. They have good reasons, but still... My father is recovering muscle mass after his triple bypass. It is a slow process. I have no excuse for my own muscles needing increasing. At least the weather is finally better.
I am glad to hear you are feeling a lot better. I hope things improve even more!
That sounds challenging. I hope the physio goes well. My father (who is recovering surprisingly well from a triple bypass) believes that the key to physio is, once you understand the exercises, to do them more often, but more gently if you can. He spoke to a physiotherapist years ago who said the reason physio often hurts is that most people won't do physio a little every hour or two. The physiotherapist said if people did the latter, they would recover better and with less pain. My father took this to heart and it served him well over the years when he has had to recover from various surgeries. If it helps you also, great. If not, please ignore.
I look forward to reading your next post when you are well enough and feel like it.
Oh man! That's quite the ordeal and far from a trifling matter.
I hope your recovery is a fairly speedy one but a thorough, complete, one is far more important, so if it takes a little while then so be it. I'm sure bed is the very best place for that to take place right now so kudos on being a smart guy and knowing when to let the body do it's thing.
Sending you and yours all the very best as you navigate this challenging time my friend. From time to time we are sharply reminded that Hive isn't going anywhere even though we may be on the side-lines for a spell. I'm sure this update was quite an ordeal in your present condition, although not welcome news, thanks for taking a few moments to let people know.
Very much looking forward to seeing you around again as you begin to improve and head back into 'fighting fit' territory. Take great care of yourself Shadowy one 🙂
I'm so sorry to hear of your struggle with your health. That sounds really frightening.
I had viral meningitis five years ago. It knocked the stuffing right out of me and it took about two years to recover. I'm still not really as I used to be. I was told, make sure you sleep and rest, eat clean and take a good multivitamin supplement. My best wishes to you whilst you recover.
Dammit.!!
My human and I have just been bizzy as hell is why I have been scarce.
We will take busy over the lung deal any day of the week.
Hurry back to health. Glad you are still with us.
Purrs and Ankle Rubs to You. =^,,^=
I think a speedy recovery is questionable, but the lung is healing, doctor said about 6 months for full healing on it while it attaches to some part around the lung so no air leaks can get in. Getting strength back I hope will be faster, 30 days of bed jail is not good on the muscles.
Thanks for the well wishes.
