Getting Better --
The good news is that I'm doing a lot better than I was. My gout has let up a considerable amount and I can now get around the house with a cane . . . I was barely able to move with a walker for a number of days. Oh, my foot still hurts a lot (and I'm still keeping a rigid schedule of pain relief) . . . but it is waaaay better than it was.
The bad news is that my computer is still down (I'm typing this on my wife's machine) . . . and is likely to remain so through mid-week at least. Between my gout and his work schedule, the friend who is helping me won't be available before then . . . *sigh* . . . so no email for a few more days . . . but at least my foot feels a lot better.

PS, my grateful "thanks" to all of you who wished me a quick recovery . . . I truly DO appreciate it.

Maybe not a quick recovery, but at least you are moving forward. I am glad to hear that, especially hoping that the pain continues to ease off.
best regards

Thank you, Gentlemen.
John, yes the pain has decreased quite a bit (even though it is still nasty). I definitely feel that I'm "on the mend".
I certainly feel for all of those historic figures who had to continue campaigning without the aid of modern painkillers.
When gout is is full operation even the air hurts. I can remember one bout years ago when I tripped . . . and my body wouldn't let my gouty foot break the fall.
Gout is nasty!

Glad to hear things are improving...
All the best,

Sounds most awful Jeff. But good to hear its easing a bit.
Good to hear you're on the mend! May the healing continue!
Indeed, your input is missed!
Still haven't heard how Lewd Wig the Vile responds to the Duchess's indecent proposal?
Take care of yourself ...
constant pain can really affect one's life, I know. the sooner you're feeling better, the more effective these blogs will be I suspect!

Here's to a speedy recovery!
A swift and hopefully painless recovery to you, Jeff.
here's to hoping the pain meds permit you to put brush to metal at least.
