Oh man forgive me but when I read this I almost started laughing. Which I am quite certain could be a bit painful at the moment.All this talk of hernias reminded me of when I had my gall bladder surgery. It was supposed to be a same day cut but something wasn't just right once the man with the knive got in there so it was a full cut, maybe 7". They said I'd be in the hospital a week, but I was home in 54 hours. Hate hospitals. Anyway. the day I got home things were a bit stiff as far as movement went but I pretty much stayed in bed and read. That night a thunderstorm rolled thru and lightning struck a neighbor's tree, maybe 250 feet from the bedroom window. The thunderclap that followed startled the hell out of me and I sat right up.... fast.... wrong thing to do. As soon as I got laid back down it was lights out again, but I'll never forget the feeling of being torn in half when I sat up that quickly.
I can only imagine what that must have been like.
Definitely made me smile.
