    I am sorry i have'nt kept up. I have been running my butt off, I had to swing back down to fla to fix my title .poped in an seen southern pride. he was looking good...But things have turned for the not so good. He went back into the hospital a week ago with kidney failure again:biggrin_25511:..N they we going to amputate his 2 toes due to gang green was setting in. But, they have changed their minds and are takeing his foot off. He is not doing so well, but now they should have done the surgury as of yesterday. I had a deal with mrs .pride that if she didnt call me yesterday that they did the surgury and everything went ok......as of yet . No phone call..but i will give her a call this eveing to get a update...... thank you all and please say a big prayer for mr southern pride
    thanks dino

    Yeah Dino, thanks for the update. I was fixing to post to see how the heck YOU were doing as well, with the nuclear banana. Hopefully SP is finally on the mend and things will improve for him from here on out.

    well, as for me. The company southerpride recomended is excellent! First 2 weeks sucked due to only 2 loads an 2 days on the pay period. the second weeks sucked because i had to come back to fla to fix my title... Now., they have bent over backwards to help me get to where i need to be...no beyatching about that at all... now for the third week....a full week of running. i did real good, this week was even better...an everyone that works for this company no matter what level they are or what dept...they do everything they can to help you,...I must say other companys should take a buisness modle after them! it's hard to impress me. but I have been impressed....people do what they say they are gona do.....now theres a news flash, Imagine that somebody accutly dos their job an then some:biggrin_25524:

    now back to southern pride, I'm in dallas doing a reset, just talked with his wife ...theres some things going on , fluid in the lungs are almost down to surgury levels..they did not do the surgury! she says moneday or tuesday...the sooner they do this the better. that gang green is whats causeing all these problems.....he did eat a small wendys smoothy today an kept it down....oh the reason for the fluid in the lungs is for the last 7 days they have had him on a IV to rehydrate him..his levels were at 2000 i think she said and are now down to 600, they need to be at 200 for the surgury...i'll know more monday or tuesday
