This is an up date of my last Journal:

http://www.thailandfriends.com/index.php?name=Journal&view=journal&jid=64250&juid=71097

As I mentioned in my last journal I was suppose to come home asap but I decided to stay until may 8th.

Under the circumstances of being injured I got to see Thailand in a more different light. The people tend to see you more of a person then just a visitor or tourist or maybe we just move so fast because we can and when we are injured we see things a little bit slower not to mention that this is like all parts of the world !!!!!

This in essence is my different experience on this past trip to Thailand.

Thank you bcool for staying with me at the hospital.

Thank you Nave for calling me everyday to see if I had food to eat.

Thank you Rob for checking in on me at times.

Thank you Nuch for hanging out with me at times.

May 8th: Got home from Thailand traveling thru Narita International Airport at 7:30am in 1st class which made the trip so much better

Got an appointment for 8:30am.

Doctor said I have to get MRI which was scheduled for May 12th.

May 12th: Took MRI at 10:30am and got called from Orthopedic Doctor saying that I have torn Right Quad muscle.

Schedule to see doctor May 13th.

May 13th: Walked into doctor's office and he said, " How are you ?

We need to get you into surgery today ? "

Bamm Bamm Bamm the world has changed and reality hits !!!!

Got into surgery at 7:30pm out at 9:30pm and into the recovery room.

Got meds all night for the pain

May 14th: Doctor comes to see me at 10:30am and tells me everything went well and that it's all up to me now with rehab but have to keep my brace on for 4 weeks !!!!!

May 15th: Wake up to terrible pain.....survived the day

May 16th: Wake up to a better day. Everything is looking good

May 17th: Today was great....had my 1st shower and bowel movement....kicking back and having a Heineken, Maui Wowie & a cigarette.

Modern technology is great

Life is great !!!!!

Got an idea today from someone to rest in Thailand ?????

I think that is a good idea....when I get better maybe in about 2-3 months I will be coming back Jack !!!!!

So Shamu...start planning that event....Welcome back the King
