A day in the life in the North

My FIL fell seriously ill

sorry to hear that

removed a portion of his lower intestine

That's a pretty serious op, what was the issue?

[Stumpy]

From what I gather Mike he has always had some sort of gastrointestinal issue. As time goes on parts of it just collapse causing an almost sepsis like infection. So the immediate response is remove the areas infected.

I reviewed all the test results and he is just getting old and things are starting to fail.

almost sepsis like

was going to be my guess, well hope a speedy recovery for the old fella.

Thanks Toots. I expect a reasonably long recovery due to his age but we have a great support group around. Sister will be up tomorrow and will stay with us as well as their cousin to help care in his recovery

I have a 5-year-old St Benard. When I go out on shovel patrol, she will usually squeeze one out. Kind of like while you're at it you can have this.

All the very best and hope he recovers quickly. Sounds like you have a good support network there.
