No bragging Capt. Just curious about how this aging group is doing health wise.

I have had a few out patient procedures, but in all my 63 years have only one surgery where I was required to stay in the hospital..and that was my hip replacement in 2008

 

[Kitties]

I've had one, gall bladder removal. One night in the hospital which I think was totally unnecessary.

 

[Butterfly]

My hip replacements in 2013, and my tonsils when I was 5.

I had a partial hysterectomy in 1989. Back then a five day hospital stay was required. I think they kick people out sooner now because of insurance companies. In January 2016 I had a cardia ablation done. I was in the hospital for about 32 hours.

I had a leiomyoma embolized 10 years ago. They kept me overnight - no surprise there. Same thing when I broke the fibula in my left leg 9 years ago. I had to have surgery to put a plate on the bone. I was surprised that would keep me after that. Maybe something happened during surgery that concerned the medics.

My birthday suit has been cut and stitched so many times it looks like a quilt. And I am only 83.
