Mushu Says Merry Christmas

Gonna be Awol longer than I thought.

Turtle — Thu, 25 Dec 2025 04:22:32 +0000

I had my hernia repair done two weeks, and this Sunday I had a dramatic complication instead of a smooth healing, so I won't be around much while I'm working iwth my wound care team to sort this out. Ashe was fast calling the 911, and I'm going to be okay now, but there was a minute when it was all happening I really wasn't sure that I was going to be okay.

Miss you guys, but getting this healed us is apparently going to be somewhat involved. I'm home from the hospital, the nurses are comign to me now! But I'm tied and can't focus, and attached to a wound vacuum that makes playing games harder than they need to be. LOl

Have a great Christmas, and I wish you all joy and all the loots, both under the tree and in DDO.

Love Turtle and Codex
