He got pneumonia and it was really bad and they had to do a 5 1/2 hour surgery on him last week.

The surgery was to remove approximately one liter of mucus/pus/fluid from his chest cavity.

I'm so glad to hear he managed to pull through it. Send him my regards!

Though I'm sure that after surgery and a week in the hospital he'd need very little primping to look the part for the Zombie Crawl, I'd steer him clear until he's back on his feet!
Get well, good luck 31d1.

Man, I told you to get the hell out of the hospital. Seriously.
(Also I've been listening to your beats the last couple of days. Nice stuff. Had no idea.)

They did that as surgery under general? My dad was in ICU a few years ago with similar problems, and the doc put the tube in and started it draining right there in the hospital room, and asking my sister, for some reason, to help.

I think 31d1 had insurance, EB.

Yes, they put him under for the surgery. Early on there was talk of doing what your dad had done, but because the fluid was infected and in several different sacs (as opposed to it being in a singular blob) a more extensive surgery was needed to make sure they got it all.

Best wishes to him - I've met him twice (both #tapes meetups) and he's a lot of fun.

And read that book I gave you yesterday, it's awesome.
Definitely don't read her other book, especially what with all you've just gone through.

31d1 got ravaged in a dark alley by three hardcore, male-hating lesbians with baseball bats. Let's just say they didn't slug him with those bats.
On an (un)related note, bats don't belong in the rectum.
