Bear feet and scars oh my! *Andy images* (safe to view)

[ramanth]

When Andy was still in the hospital he took a walk in the bear slippers. :D As you can see this was after the chest tube was removed.

Oh my gosh, those slippers are priceless!!!
Sorry, but I'm a tad squeamish when it comes to looking at wounds.....:o

[Jods]

OUCH!!!!! :eek: Give him a bear hug for us all carefully!!! Glad he's home now!!

[Paul]

   Those are /will be/ very small scars for so much pain. I guess bear feet go well with any occasion. I hope Andy is well.

He was sent home with a perscription of Vicoden, BUT, he says it hasn't been hurting very much, so he hasn't taken any pain meds other than over the counter Motrin. :D

Now, he might take a few when the staples are removed... not that I blame him. :eek: :(

[Corinna]

Those insisions look bad now but they will be small and not bad soon . Actually as some one from a medicail back ground they are really good looking. The unknown cut looks almost like a sheet cut since his skin is being streched he probly laid on that side to long and when he did turn it was a cut ( my opinion for what its worth.
Now that hes home lets get him fattened up lots of pudding and protiens.
Glad hes home.

[lynnestankard]

Wow Andy - {{{{{Hugs}}}}} across the miles - that looks painful and no wonder youj didn't want to trjp the light fantastic down the hall ways.
Take good card and - EAT WELL!!!!

Love from Lynne

[kimlovescats]

Those chest tube holes are PAINFUL looking!!!! OUCH!!! Trust me, the staple removal is nothing ... had two C-Sections with them! ;) So glad Andy is home!

[slleipnir]

Owww!! Glad he's ok! Looks really painfull though :X

[GraciesMommy]

Good to see him up and moving! Bear feet and all!

[luckies4me]

Oh my! I am glad to see he is feeling ok enough to walk around. Those wounds where the chest tubes were look pretty painful! Do they have to be bandaged to prevent infection?

[buckner]

Hehe, I LOVE the slippers! I want a pair. :D The only thing that got me on the pictures was the surgery incision... :eek: I've never been able to look at things like that (same goes for fish gills, allergy testing "dots", air vents, etc.)... just freaks me out. But he's looking good! Lots of wishes and prayers going out to Andy!

Yep, according to my Dad, there's nothing in the world quite like a chest tube. :(

And you're right Kim, staple removal is a snap! :D

Like everyone else, I ADORE the bear slippers! :D I hope he has a speedy recovery!

[jazzcat]

Wowza!! That looks like some ordeal he's been through.

Love the bear slippers.

[4 Dog Mother]

Poor Andy! What awful looking wounds! (Can't be scars until they heal). Hope he is feeling better soon. Those bear claw slippers are something else.

[BCBlondie]

Ouch! Poor guy, having to go through all that.. :( I hope he recovers quickly, and hopefully as painlessly as possible!

Great slippers. :D

[christa]

LOVE the bear slippers! Too awesome!

I'm glad to see Andy up and walking about . . . hope he is feeling better as he recovers!

:)

[davidpizzica]

Ramanth, I'm glad that Andy is up and about! Those incisions sure remind me of my knee scar. And everyone is right, the staples come out pretty easily. I love those bear slippers!

[ramanth]

Andy says 'thanks' to all of you for the good vibes. :)

For those that like the Bear Slippers, I found them at Kohl's. :D

Luckies4me: Yep, the chest tube wounds have to be bandaged to keep out infection. :)

[pitc9]

Oh My!!!:eek:

So glad to see him walking around!!! Hope he continues to recover quickly!!

Hugs to you both!!!:D

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

Oh my, that' is quite a "zipper"!! Did you count the staples? After my operation last year, I had 60 staples :eek: , and because I am allergic to metal, it was all infected. No no, the removal of the staples is NOT fun :eek:
Wishing you a great recovery, Andy!!

[Barbara]

Ouch!!!! No wonder he didn't feel much like walking.

Now Andy you have to work a little on the rest of the bear- you know getting a little broader and hairier;)

My goodness!!! :eek: :(

Andy has 15 staples. I couldn't imagine 60!! And being allergic! :(

*hugs*

[ramanth]

Staples came out a-okay.

Andy asked for continued prayers. He says he's not out of the woods yet.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

You got it Andy! :)

[My Peanuts]

OUCH! Poor Andy. More prayers on the way.

His bear slipper are really funny! :D

Don't tell me that!!!! OUCH!!!!!

Still keeping you in our thoughts and prayers, Andy :)

[ramanth]

Lynne - He's packing it in, so I'd say pretty well. It'll probably be awhile before we notice any results.

Phred - http://www.click-smilies.de/sammlung0304/lachen/laughing-smiley-004.gif I have no clue. :D

Seriously though, Andy still thinks he's not 'out of the woods'. I think he is. If anything he needs prayers for a swift recovery. I guess the doctors talking in 'hushed' tones makes him nervous.


Amy - I'm sure you're procedure will be just fine. :) Andy said he didn't feel a thing when they took them out.

[moosmom]

Andy,

I don't care what anyone says, you are a vision of loveliness and know I know why Kimmy is crazy about you!!

(((hugs)))

More prayers on the way for Andy. So glad that he's eating OK.

[ramanth]

Mooshoo! You handsome devil. :D

[Corinna]

Glad to hear all is going well.

I hope that you two will have a very happy Thanksgiving. You have much to be thankful for this year. :)

Prayers continue for your quick recovery, Andy!! :)
