Latest update from Danny boy.

He is now in the transitional clinic, as he needs care for his "precious goodies" every day.
He is still in pain, but also very bored.

He asked me to post his direct phone number : 731 541 01 10 . I think he would like a little chat with his AM family.

Of course I can give out his cell phone number, a Verizon one, if you send me a PM. I know you guys have some free time at weekends in the US.

I admit I am sad that Dan isn't coming any time soon. But he needs to get well and we will see from there. What shall be shall be I guess.

Once more, a big kiss and hug for all your support. I can assure you it helped me to get through.

Love

Scrotum Limerick for Danny Boy

So, we're told you're now in transition
Per your expert personal physician
If this is true, are your nuts now blue
From thinking of Hermie and wishin'?

Glad to hear Dan is on the mend!  Hooray!

Hermie - hope you can find some peace knowing Dan is getting better.

Thoughts go out to both of you!

Em... I thought of this one

I'm in love with a boy from Jackson Tennessee,
who's balls were hurt and blue, oh jee
his nuts got cracked, his sack was sewed,
for sex he's now no longer in the mood

Lord oh Lord have mercy with me
repair his jewels and let me see
this cute little ballsack, all mend and repaired
I promise to cuddle it, strike and be ware

Oh Jesus oh Mary oh Angels above
Give Danny' sweet  lolly new life with your love
round balls, smooth scrotum and no pubic hair
good heavens, I'm horny with Dan over there...

Touche, Monsieur Herman

On Guard!

My guess is that Belgium will celebrate
You as their poet of highest rate
We'll say we knew you before fame withdrew you
And thrust you to world-renowned fate!

Herman thanks for posting his number we have free long distance with our cable/phone/internet service so I just gave him a call. I just find it easier to call than type messages. I'll try to call periodically thru the week.

Sending positive healing energy Dan's way.

I just hung up with Dan...he sounded pretty good, but I know he is in a lot of pain and discomfort.   Medicare will pay for 20 days for him to be in this "transitional care" facility, but let's hope and pray he does not have to stay that long.

Sending love and prayers for speedy healing......

Uh Hermie, could ya be more specific?  LOL

Danny boy, you'd better be on the mend. There's a major Belgian need in the making.

Wishing you a speedy recovery for all concerned.

Hi Dan~

I am so sorry that what you thought could possibly be a simpler procedure has turned into weeks of hospitalization and care for you.

Your AM Family loves you very much!

I hope that you feel better soon, I know that boredom can drive you "nuts!"  LOL   ;D

I hope you have some decent TV shows to watch.  Just rest up while I send prayers your way!

Much Love,

~ Cindy

But he is mostly bored...

The phone is 731 541 0110

Hugs from Belgium

Well, Hermes gave me Dan's number so I did send him a text message. Not sure if he got it but then maybe he was knocked out from the drugs....Hope you're feeling better, Dan.

Update :
Dan told me the doctors want to keep him 20 , yes TWENTY, more days for an IV antibiotic treatment.
Of course the poor boy freaked out.
His roommate is an old man who soils himself , and so the stench is not what one needs when you feel nauseated.

My poor Danny just doesn't want to stay in there and is trying to have him released and have some sort of nursing help at home arranged.

Keep him in your thoughts...

The good news is that the wound is starting to heal.

love

I recently had a 7-day stay at the hospital, and I was sure I was going to die. My boyfriend couldn't be there with me, and I felt very alone. I'm glad to be over it now. But just know that there are a lot of people on here that care about you and Dan.  A hospital stay scares all of us.

Spoke with Danny yesterday morning, but that was before this news arrived. Twenty more days means he'll spend Thanksgiving in the hospital. Cards and calls! Hermie, hang in.

Hi Hermie
Please send hugs for your Danny and you have to be patient. Maybe he can contact a nurse to the IV antibiotic treatment.
Hugs for you too.
Be in contact please.
