Wow,

You get around!! Sorry about your hen, it always seems to happen when you go away doesn't it? Either that or some specialized piece of equipment breaks at 4:59 pm on Friday...

Hey Luke, we haven't forgotten about you.
But we could use an update on how you and the peeps are doing.

 

[bluesub]

Hope you are busy traveling!

Luke, I am so sorry about your little hen

That stinks. Hope you are feeling up to snuff and that they got your cath all straightened out. You will be in my thoughts and prayers through the holidays.

You guys are so great.

UPDATE: My liver numbers have been doing relatively well. I was approved to return to work. I miss work so much. CHeck out this video of some of the work that we do in class.

Update continued...they moved it back a while, but I am scheduled to get the catheter removed on Tuesday! WooHoo! One depressing side effect from the high dose of steroids has been my skin. The dermatologists seemed to have found a combination of things that are beginning to work so my skin is clearing.

Diabetic

Ugh, that is tough to deal with. I've been a lot more disciplined lately though.....

ALSO!
Please BYC Family: To help with the medical costs (That climb and climb) go to a Wells Fargo branch/or online and transfer money into a separate account (from my own) All you need is my name, Luke Neal and the code 8138.

If you have PayPal, like most of us internet folks do. Log on to your Paypal. Go to transfer funds. Type in: [email protected], and JUST like that it's done. Even if it's $2.00. I'd be ever so appreciative. Thanks EVER so MUCH to Stoopid for contributing and sending trinkets. I've now been collecting chicken things...

OR - send to my home address: 621 Kenneth Rd, Greensboro, NC 27455. Even if it's a nice note, I'd love it. I get lonely and sad and it all helps.

Finally, htto://cafepress.com/TeamLukeNeal You can get all sorts of inexpensive items here. A small piece of proceeds go to my med funds, but the stuff is super cool: T-shirts, mugs, thermoses (Thermi ?) lol, Nook cases, iPhone covers. It's amazing.

Thanks BYC. No pressure, but I hope you guys will help support.

Happy Holidays.
PEACE AND LOVE,
Luke (grill)

PS. If you are in NC and know where I can get another beautiful Sebright hen. Please let me know.

Luke,

Hope you had a relaxing holiday at home (and not in the hospital!).

 

[bluesub]

Luke,

Hope you are too busy working and spending time with your chickens to post much...

 

[stoopid]

Happy New Year, Luke.
How's it going?
We haven't heard from you in a while, I hope it's because you're too busy working

and not in the other icky place

Luke, just checking in to see how you are. You haven't posted in three weeks! I hope and pray that you are just busy working and that everything in your world is peachy!
