Riverwind is in Hospital

luvpain (imported) · Post by **luvpain (imported)** » Wed Sep 25, 2002 8:38 am

Hi All,

Just wanted to keep you all updated. I got an e-mail back from Riverwind today.

He went to the Doctor today for a checkup, and was hospitalized because of an infection, (I'm not sure where and the cause just yet), some back issues, and a few other issues.

According to the e-mail I received he should be back online in a few days. He doesn't want anyone to worry about him.

I wanted to share this information with everyone here, since Riverwind is an active member.

I hope none of this was related to his recent castration. In any case, I wish him a speedy recovery.

I too am sorry to hear about Riverwind. I know he was worried about going back to work on Monday and I did not go on the chat room last night, but I did read his post about leaving work early. I hope it's nothing serious! I do worry about you and hope to see you back soon.

Any word yet on Riverwind? I'll be worried until I hear he is okay.

I haven't heard any more from Riverwind. I doubt that he has easy access to the interenet from the hospital.

I don't know what hospital he is in either so I can't try and call him to see how he is doing.

All we can basically do is wait for him.

I miss you in chat.

Know you are loved and thought about here at EA.

Well I just heard from Riverwind, he is back home.

He is still tired but other than that seems fine.

Riverwind (imported) · Sat Sep 28, 2002 12:24 am

Oh my, thank you all for your support I could feel it all the way to to Hospital. Long story short, had three things going on

Pain in my chest which I though was a pulled mussel, (it was)

they ran everytest on my heart known to man, My heart is fine.

My back, I have a pinched nerve in the back and could hardley walk. This is a work in progress.

Infection: I got an infection on the surgery area, it is now about healed and better, still taking antibotics.

If you are wondering, Its not often a hospital gets a real live eunuch to work on, I was exmined but at least 25 different people and some more the 8 or 10 times. <sigh> had one group of students that waited for me to get out of the bath so they could see,

felt like saying get out our cameras, but just said gather around and take a good look, then figured It was my turn and asked them had they ever seen a eunuch.

they left in a hurry.

Anyway, I am now home, i am tired, but will join the chat tonight.

Love to you all my friends.

Riverwind,

I think your response to the med students was great. I think a bit of humour mixed with shock value is a great response to anyone who expresses interest. When someone says, "You're castrated?" it is best to say "Yep, wanna take a look!" That will always shut them up quickly.

Glad you're being cared for.

Delighted to hear that you are back home and everything is going to be normal soon. You had us all wondering. Take care and we shall chat soon. Eunuch Paul

I have been in the hospital for the last three days, feeling really shitty, infection from the surgery that I had in Philly by Dr Kimmel.

On the way home I got the prescriptions filled and when I got home went out to this board to tell everybody I was ok.

When I looked at the prescriptions and opened the one for infection I noticed that it was the same thing Dr Kimmel gave me in Philly that I misplaced and then forgot about. I looked for it until I found it; it's the same identical stuff.

I feel like such a dunce. Don't know how I missed it, and all of this would have been prevented if I had not misplaced the prescription I got from Dr Kimmel.

Well on the other side a lot of people in the hospital got to see his work and several said what a nice job. It was not all a loss, I had fun throwing back the sheet so show my surgery off to anybody that wanted to look which was just about everybody that came in the room.

Most of all I want to tell my friends that I am sorry, I feel so stupid.

For those that are going to Kimmel, take all the pills. You will be fine; he is a wonderful man and great surgeon. Yes make sure you take all the pills he gives you, all of them.

I'm curious: How did you explain your lack of testicles to the people at the hospital, and what was their reaction?

Riverwind (imported) · Sat Sep 28, 2002 9:05 am

I told them the truth, some could handle it others could not.

The ones that could were the gals more then the guys but I guess that is to be expected.

I did notice that most of the guys were more then uncomfortable with my condition.

The best thing is I got a private room, ??????? I am not male or female,

I was asked more questions than you could possibly imagine. It kind of became funny to the point that I keep myself exposed longer then needed. What the hell.

Anyway if being in the hospital can be a good time I did have a good time.

RW ..

We were all worried. Just wanted to say hello and how glad you are doing better and how relieved we are to hear from you!

This confirms my own experience. Doctor Kimmel is an excellent surgeon, and after my scrotal removal I did take the pills, so I had no problem healing.

Riverwind,

I'm glad things are fine now. It's good to hear that eunuchs are the side show entertainment when they are in the hospital. I guess it's something for me to look forward to.

I guess my attitude is that if they're looking, they deserve to see whatever they see. <ha>

Again, glad you doing o.k. Missed ya. I'm gonna miss all of you while I'm away next week. Do I really have to go to Georgia? Ugh...

I am glad to hear that you are doing better and back home. Please do rest and take it easy.

I do recall Dr. Spector instructing me to start taking the Cipro pills two days before surgery until five days after. I had no post-surgical infection, so I should add to the advice of several others to use all the pills.

Wishing you recovered health,
