Subject: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Rapparee Date: 10 Feb 05 - 01:34 PM Dick goes in for bypass surgery on Monday. Good wishes, feelings, or whatever you have are definately in order! (I asked him if I could post this; he doesn't mind.) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Megan L Date: 10 Feb 05 - 01:44 PM Our thoughts and prayers are with you. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Mooh Date: 10 Feb 05 - 01:45 PM Get well and stay well! Hope all goes well. Peace, Mooh. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Bill D Date: 10 Feb 05 - 01:47 PM well, I wasn't gonna say it unless he ok'd it... note..Dick was out and about last weekend, being CAMSCO and joining in some singing here in the DC area. He has not felt tip-top in awhile, and they finally decided that 'some' blockage was the problem. I firmly expect this to bring him right back up to his usual state of having more energy than most folks half his age..*grin*...(he has always been one of the last to quit singing at 3AM at the Getaway!) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: SINSULL Date: 10 Feb 05 - 01:48 PM WOW! For a minute I thought you meant Dick Greenhouse of Camsco. Not sure who this Dick is but he has my thoughts and prayers. Damnit Dick! I was counting on you to be one of the "healthy" ones to help carry out my New Years resolution. Practice using the coughing pillow and stay well. Love, Mary |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Bill D Date: 10 Feb 05 - 01:51 PM there IS no Dick "Greenhouse" at CAMSCO....as he'll be glad to note...*grin*...but Dick Greenhaus will be briefly incapacitated |

|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: curmudgeon Date: 10 Feb 05 - 03:55 PM Positive thoughts are on the way, Dick. having been through it last April, I have some idea of your feelings. The aftereffects are not that enjoyable, and the whole procedure a bit of a pain, but definately preferable to the alternative. If your recovery is like mine was, you'll be in decent shape for NEFFA, and in fine form by the time the Getaway comes along. I haven't felt this good in years. Feel free to PM me about any of this -- Tom |

|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: kendall Date: 10 Feb 05 - 08:04 PM It was one year ago on February 2nd that I had that procedure done. It is almost routine these days, and you will feel younger after you heal. (You won't be, but you will feel like it) DONT COUGH!! |

Learn how to cough with your pillow and avoid sneezing!!! Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Stilly River Sage Date: 10 Feb 05 - 09:54 PM Dick, if you're lucky you'll be treated a lot more respectfully after than Kendall was. Once he was on the mend the thread participation got a little punch drunk and. . . er. . . started picking on other parts of his anatomy (I've let a pretty good pun pass, but I haven't gone back to look for that thread to see if I remember the teasing right. Maybe Jacqui will remember?) SRS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Pauline L Date: 10 Feb 05 - 11:01 PM Dick, this is a hell of a way to celebrate Valentine's Day! It was wonderful seeing you at the minifest. I'm looking forward, as you are, to having you stay up and sing and play until really late at the next Getaway. P.S. So you changed your mind about a thread on Mudcat? Please, Dick and/or Susan, let us know about your recovery after the surgery. A lot of people here really care about you. |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: GUEST Date: 11 Feb 05 - 12:00 AM Sorry, the Smithsonian's public offering of government funded recordings had such a negative impact.
Perhaps, you should sell CAMSCO?
Perhaps, the new real-estate magnate Max - will buy and share? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: dianavan Date: 11 Feb 05 - 02:22 AM Heart surgery on Valentine's day? Gives new meaning to a broken heart. I'm visualizing a healthy, red heart throbbing a steady rhythm. Hope this helps. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Roger the Skiffler Date: 11 Feb 05 - 04:10 AM Best wishes, Dick. Alarming though this always sounds to me, it seems to be regarded as a routine procedure these days. Last friend who had it done didn't even need to go into intensive care after the op. That was just before Xmas and he's hoping to go back to work soon. RtS |

|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Rapparee Date: 13 Feb 05 - 10:08 PM Dick, I forgot to mention the worst thing of all about this surgery. From the experience of my brother's nine bypasses, from my uncle's five -- it's not the coughing, the sneezing, or the pain. You can deal with all of that. It's those #@$%!!**$(%!! hospital nightgowns. Whoooooooooeeeeeeeee! are you gonna get a breeze! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: kendall Date: 13 Feb 05 - 10:33 PM I didn't mind the gown as much as the constant noise. No way can you sleep in those glamorized charnel houses. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Rapparee Date: 13 Feb 05 - 10:37 PM That's true, Kendall. And it's considered bad manners and gets you talked about if you yell, "Shut the HELL UP all of you!" |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: GUEST,bbc at work Date: 14 Feb 05 - 11:34 AM Waiting to hear. Susan, you've been on my mind. Waiting through a loved one's surgery is no fun! love to both, barbara |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Pauline L Date: 14 Feb 05 - 11:32 PM Susan, thanks for the post. I hope that Dick's recovery is quick and uncomplicated. I know that surgery can be hard on the spouse, so take it easy. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Sandy Paton Date: 15 Feb 05 - 04:05 AM Thought I might find an update here, Susan. Thanks for posting it. When he wakes up, tell him I owe him a big one for those two Australian CDs from the meredith collection - "Sharing the Harvest." They are really special! What a great service he is providing to the folk world through Camsco. Get him back to us soon, and also remind him to hug the pillow if he has to cough. It helps, but only just a little! Sandy |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: GUEST, Allan C. Date: 15 Feb 05 - 06:27 AM Best wishes to you, Dick. Enjoy the PT. They'll soon have you in better shape than you've been in for years! |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: GUEST,tinker Date: 15 Feb 05 - 07:51 AM Thanks for the update Susan. Rest as best you both can and do your best to keep him following directions. Love to you both Tinker |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: GUEST,Bat Goddess Date: 15 Feb 05 - 07:56 AM Susan -- it will probably take YOU longer to recover than Dick! But lots of good thoughts and white light heading to you from this direction. If Dick's post surgery is like Tom's (besides the tune-up, Tom had a valve job and some electrical work done), today will be Dick's "lost" day -- although he'll act awake, he won't remember a bit of it. Good thing, too, cuz he'll be cranky. It's absolutely remarkable what modern medical science can do -- you WILL feel soooo much better! Hope your recovery is smooth and uneventful. And Susan, take care of yourself, too! Linn |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Dani Date: 15 Feb 05 - 09:56 AM Wonderful news. Still thinking of you guys. Dani |

|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: SINSULL Date: 15 Feb 05 - 10:43 AM Good news, Susan. Now get some rest yourself. He will be a pain in the butt for a time. It hurts. But he will feel better, breathe better, have more energy, etc. Give the old guy a hug for me and reassure him that we all know how to spell his name - just more fun not to. Love, SINS |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Susan of DT Date: 15 Feb 05 - 07:04 PM He is doing really well. He is out of intensive care and says he does not hurt. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Jeri Date: 15 Feb 05 - 07:21 PM Good drugs, maybe, although I hope the not hurting continues. My mom didn't have a problem with her chest, but the leg they took the graft out of drove her nuts. Thinking of both of you, Jeri |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: GUEST,Nancy King at work Date: 15 Feb 05 - 07:34 PM Great news! Thanks, Susan! I sure hope he has a quick and uncomplicated recovery -- and that you don't wear yourself out... |

|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Susan of DT Date: 16 Feb 05 - 12:06 PM Thank you everyone. He was sent a teddy bear, but he could not keep it in intensive care, so it is waiting for him at home - he saw it before the surgery. Nutty - he figures this will make the hills easier in Whitby. we will be at NEFFA and see several of you there. As I mentioned in the NEFFA thread. We can use a little help this year at the festival. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Ferrara Date: 16 Feb 05 - 02:49 PM Susan, I'm told that hugging a pillow will also make the drive home easier on the incision as well as protecting it from the seat belt. If he still isn't having any pain --wonderful! -- then he may not need it. Love you both, and thank you for keeping everyone in touch. Rita |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: curmudgeon Date: 16 Feb 05 - 02:58 PM The pillow is essential when riding in cars due to the threat of airbags. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Bert Date: 16 Feb 05 - 03:54 PM The pillow is essential at Mudcat for the same reason. |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Lanfranc Date: 17 Feb 05 - 06:39 PM I don't know why this is in BS either! I don't often stray below the music threads and have missed this 'til now. I am relieved that the news is good, and Dick is on the mend, the alternative would not bear consideration. Dick, I hope to see you soon on this side of the pond and in robust health again. All the very best to you and Susan - take enormous care of him, Susan. Alan |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Guy Wolff Date: 17 Feb 05 - 07:12 PM Glad to hear Dick's coming home. Amazing this new world .. Hum the hills at Whitby ... Lots of Love , Guy |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Susan A-R Date: 19 Feb 05 - 12:03 AM Humph, you go away for a few days and what happens? Very relieved that all went well. Take care of yourself. Probably won't see you for a real hug until October, (May miss Old songs due to a Mother In Law visit) but the virtual one is here. Don't over do it. Milk it for all it's worth! Hug! Hug! Susan A-R |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Ferrara Date: 19 Feb 05 - 01:02 AM Dick -- that's disgusting. Nobody gets to have it that easy. Oh well. You deserve your good fortune with it all. Hope this fixes you right up. Rita |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Hrothgar Date: 19 Feb 05 - 02:31 AM Welcome home, Dick. |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Susan of DT Date: 19 Feb 05 - 06:50 AM Thanx again, all of you. What we need at NEFFA is: 1) one or two people to help unload the car/setup the booth on Friday afternoon (hours before the festival opens) 2) one or two people to help breakdown/load the car on Sunday evening 3) people to stop by, visit, and give us a break to get away from the booth now and again during the festival. We use a hand truck, but it is still a lot of work. There are around 1000 pounds of CDs plus assorted boxes of books, boxed sets, and stuff for the booth. The tables and display unit travel on top of the car. Susan |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: GUEST,WYSIWYG Date: 19 Feb 05 - 08:28 AM Wait just a minute, Dick-- as anyone who has had surgery knows, there are TWO OTHER things you have to have been able to do, besides walk, before they let you out. :~) So that was an incomplete report. But--- thanks for not sharing the details! ~Susan |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: CET Date: 20 Feb 05 - 06:41 AM Susan and Dick: Well, thank God for that! I just saw this thread or I would have posted earlier. I'm looking forward to seeing you both at the Getaway. Edmund |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: GUEST,Chanteyranger Date: 20 Feb 05 - 03:51 PM Looking forward to seeing you at Mystic. Glad it all went smoothly! ...as smoothly as being in surgery can go. Chanteyranger |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: dick greenhaus Date: 20 Feb 05 - 08:23 PM The new theory seems to be get 'em out ASAP. The goal appears to be a complete release the day before surgery is cheduled--presumably to reduce custodial costs. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: curmudgeon Date: 20 Feb 05 - 08:45 PM You must be one tough old bird, Dick. I didn't get out for another ten days after my surgery. Of course, I did develop a bleeding ulcer and had to have a jump starter installed.. Hope to see you at NEFFA -- Tom |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Pauline L Date: 27 Feb 05 - 12:01 AM Dick, I've heard that someone from the hospital's business office tells you to get up off the operating table and walk home. I've haven't had any updates in about a week. I hope that you're doing well, all things considered. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Amos Date: 27 Feb 05 - 12:21 AM They noticed that more people catch infections of one or another sort in hospitals than anywhere else, so now they try to get you home as early as they can so they don't make ya sick, see? A |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: dianavan Date: 27 Feb 05 - 06:48 PM Glad that you are back on your feet so soon. I recently had a big scare but the doctors told me that I am a very healthy person. When I asked how that could be when I have been hospitalized for unrelated reasons three times in the last two years, they smiled and said, "But you always bounce back! Your recovery is rapid and you regain your strength quickly." So just remember to be kind to yourself, drink lots of water and eat well. BTW - Is there someone at home to look after you at this time? Those day to day chores can be cumbersome and make you weary. I hope you are getting support - emotional and otherwise. |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: dick greenhaus Date: 27 Feb 05 - 08:43 PM Still pluggin' along, with deep and heartfelt thanx to Susan, my son and my daughter who are disrupting their lives to help make mine easier. Looking forward to seeing some of y'all at NEFFA. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: SINSULL Date: 27 Feb 05 - 09:02 PM Welcome back to the land of the living, Dick. Did they give you a cute little heart shaped pillow before they tossed you out the door? Useless but decorative, as far as I can tell. I expect to be at NEFFA and will do what I can to help you and Susan out. MAry |

Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: wysiwyg Date: 27 Feb 05 - 09:06 PM Dick, we're still thinking of you all, and of course that leads inexorably to prayer cuz that's how we are. Come let us take care of you if cabin fever sets in! ~Susan |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Dick Greenhaus: Surgery From: Pauline L Date: 27 Feb 05 - 10:08 PM Dick, it's good to hear from you again. Let us know when you pick up the banjo again and we'll all rejoice. |
