thank you all for the kind wishes. I found out today i am NOT cleared for surgery. my ekg was not to the drs. liking. so more wait and more tests. i have had 3 heart attacks, of course it will show abnormal. now i just want it over with. wonder if i will have to learn how to walk again? I dont think of these questions when i am there. only late at night when my mind has nothing better to do. if i could run, i would run far from here. to a place where there are no drs. no stress. a place where i could take my socks off and let the cool water wash my pain away. a place where there were only smiles and childrens giggles with ice cream cones and sticky fingers. the sun on my face and the wind in my hair.and a big @ss MARGARITA at my finger tips.

all your words has made me realize i need you more then ever now. i am happy i dont have to go through this alone. much love to you all. and i am sorry. you are a long way apart from me but very close to my heart. i am very depressed over my chickens but look at all i have in return.

no more nonsense from me now. just a warning though. when i have the surgery and they have me on those pain pills i will not be held accountable for my words. lol they are very strong and make me do stupid things. like going to a festival and riding a mechanical bull.

I would like lots of pics of you on that bull !! Xx

Do you have an incubator?
When you get back on your feet do you plan on getting more chickens?

I came from southern AZ and you know what? They have some of those big a** margaritas there. Takes both hands to hold the glass and it would be better if you had 4 hands. LOL

I did not realize I would be leaving you guys hanging. Enola, you shame me. i am sorry.and thank you. i care for all of you. the depression is overwhelming. i am down to 11 hens and 4 roosters from 87. and everyone of them was a pet. the man that took them informed me he will be eating them.the roos for sure and some of the hens. he will only keep the big egg layers. the guineas are gone as well. the silence here speaks for itself. i still dont have the date for surgery yet but i am cleared with my heart. it wont be next monday because of holiday so probably the monday after that. i am not allowed to lift anything, strain, run, ect... the pain is overwhelming and the pills they gave me makes me do stupid things. my frosty does bring a smile to my face.
thank you everyone for your well wishes.

I'm so sorry you have to go through this. I wish there had been someone else who could have taken your chickens who wouldn't have said they would eat them. How cruel. Especially, if he knew your circumstances. I pray that all this, this stuff gets past you and you are better than ever. I watch for your posts, you always have something interesting to say even when you are in so much pain, emotional as well as physical. Love and hugs to you.

did I tell you guys i found a sweet spot in my brooder? lol i have a rolled up washcloth taped at the ends. it was from a while back a chick that hatched too early. any way. when i took those poor crushed eggs that were trying to hatch i stuck them in the washcloth and poured water all over it then set it in the brooder while i finished up my work. of course i forgot it in there for hrs. and i went out expecting it to be dead and it had finished the hatch and i couldnt even tell what one it was. LOL its not a fluke because i have since done it 2 more times. i also made some chili today from the tomatoes i didnt can and it was like taking a whole mouthful of lemon juice at once. my family is going to starve.

I wrapped a couple of eggs in wet paper towels and was afraid that they would die because I was afraid they wouldn't be able to get out of their shells and the paper towels but surprisingly, they did.

Even if they can't eat the chili, they have eggs! LOL At least you tried.
