Just got back from the Hospital. Had a ambulance ride thru rush hour traffic on Friday the 13th.....

Seems this old body aint what it used to be..... woke up in the middle of the night 1am the day previous, with difficulty breathing, and a staomache ache like I never had. I put off gettimg any treatment because simply I cant afford it. Then about 5pm Friday my pacrease shut down and everything got much worse.

Struggled to ride to my Moms house a few blocks away. Told her I didnt frrl good and laid down and I had so much pain I couldnt get back up.

To make a miserably story short an ambulance came and picked me up, I got poked and jabbed with every concievable thing you could think of, and given the bad news.


I still feel like shit, stuff is woring again but at less than 50% Ive got no energy just typing is a chore.


Worst of all is I have no money to pay for keepin myself alive yesterday. The ambulance alone was almost $500 !!! All this they say was brought on by stress. How the fuck will I ever get better if they tell me that them hand me a bill for more than my bike is worth??


Im going to lay down, Aloha All, KH

Thanks Guys! All the support really helps!
This was a Major Blow to ole KH as ya could imagaine, The way I ride my bike an all I was beggining to feel imortal. That initself isnt right but still it just goes to show you, The Lord can come and get you at anytime.


On the brighter side, one EXTREMELY unexpected thing happened. something I feel is almost worth the ordeal.

Anyone that knows me fairly well knows how much I miss my Dad. Dad was much more than justa father, he was my ABSOLUTE BEST FRIEND as well. He died four years ago of cancer.
After I was released I went to my Mom's place since that way I was near people since I live alone, the Docs dont know WTF went wrong and warned my Lidneys may shut down next.
The coolest thing imanagiable happened. I saw my Dad! 3 times in dreams as I was sleeping he kept poking his head into the doorway of the room sort of checking on me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This really floored me. I mentioned it to Mon and she came over and hugged me and smiled saying she has seen him also 2 times!!

Unreal.... I;m still stunned. That was one of the coolest things I could ever have wished for......

Another thing sort of minor happened too, my fears of doctors and hospitals is quite strong. Anyone knows me knows I have to be close to dead before Ill allwo me to go to a doctor. My sis knows this and when I came by and told them I wanted to see a doctor she knew imeaditly it was very serious. She explains this to the paramedics, here we have some of the best ERT peeps in the world and the newest vehicles and such. I knew this but wasnt prepared for what went down next. 5 seconds in the ambulance I was laying down and connected to a machine that had every stat known showing on a 19 inch monitor above my bed with a killer remote control allowing the EMT's to know just whats going on in my case I had the remote and was going off LMAO The EMT guy sat back and chuckled the entire time being very cool collecting info on me as I fucked with there megamillion sys!!
Later I was told all personal was alerted of my "fear" and went into what they call "Buddy Mode" very helpful and Oh so nice compared to the norm, especially the NURSES!!!!! :shock:

OMG :D I had the best looking little sweeties you ever seen near a hospital.... and they were very forward with there actions let me tell you.... As bad as I felt I still went into full Kitty Killer Mode!!!!!!!!!!! Dam fine ass nurses here. When doing a test or setting something up they always dumped EVERYTHING right on my crotch!!! They knew EXACTLY what they were doing and did a A++ job. They never set it on the little swing away table they uasually use, but plop right in the triangle!! This one cute little short haired blondie would giggle like crazy when my heartrate beeper would speed way the fuck up when she just walked by!!! That was so cool all this shit to screw with and 4 ultra sexy nurses to watch and play with.... Thanks to sis for telling them about my feelings!!! :D



just proof theres a fun side to everything, you just gotta find it...............

great to know that your still the good ol'KH,i bet that was hilarious with the heart monitor goin like crazy when the nurses came in,proves to them that u aint gay at least,LMAO.

im glad you got yo saw your dad again man,what did u do when you woke up may i ask?

Actually, No, it doesnt require Kaz to run it... all you need is as a photo memory card reader and if I so desired I could have all the stats it recorded for the duration I was hooked to it...... Pretty dam cool unit. If I wanted a similar unit I better get a lot more money tho it cost a couple mil a piece.

Gis, man wakin up after seein my Dad was a real joy. I cannot explain it. I just felt so dam good inside for some reason..... Me and my Mom were cryin when I told her.

Thanks BadMihai...... yer lookin a little green yerself..... LOL



I been to Canada many times, used to go to Interlochen Music Camp every summer and camp there for 3 months! Absolutly loved it all the relatives and cousins and what not would be there for the duration. Its how I grew up living outdoors. I love camping, thats why I have ALWAYS owned a 4x4 as well as my bikes.

One thing bout Canada, I bet the nursies dont look as good as ours.... :D That little Blond was a devil mmmmmmm had me in Kitty Kill Mode the entire time :D :D

Glad to see you're doing alright, KH. Sorry about the bills that come out of it, but more importantly, you're still around and kicking. And playing with high tech equipment. And getting good looking women dropping (stuff) onto your lap....

Like everyone else here, I imagine, I'm hoping things only continue to improve for the better, dude.

Thanks coombsie66 thats something I learned from my Dad. Theres a bright side to everything. Even if I feel like Im moving at a hispeed toward the dark side theres a reason for it.


The way I feel this morning it seems *I aint gonna be around much longer but I got no idea what to feel, I just feel crappy.

Had an appointmemt with a specia;ist of sum sort I didnt keep cause I just wasnt up to riding down to the hospital to do it. Not to mention piling more bills on...... dam I am never going to see light of day over ther mountaim of bille this stacked up..........

I dont mean to be rude, hurtful, condescending nor even begin to understand what you are suffering, please accept that the following is meant with good intentions..

Dont give up hope KH, trust in the Almighty.. he knows best.. have a good few conversations with Him and pray. With the increasing number of dreams you having of your dad is it not a sign of how fragile we are and how short life is?

When we are in our worst moments in this journeyof life, we can always turn to the ones we trust and love -usually thats our spouses and family. Dont hold back, try to spend some quality time with them- my family have helped me through what I thought were final cataclysms, that i was not going to make it - yet I am still here today - stronger. Their unconditional love makes even the worst boo boo`s seem so much smaller..

Even though it seems impossible now, things will get better!
Time will pass and u will have memories of how u were down and overcame this rough patch.. u will smile even..

I hope that all your troubles will pass soon, just dont lose hope.. I am praying for you..

PS. I dont know how much it will cost u in Hawaii but I recommend from the symptoms u describe -if you have not had one already- to have an ultrasound abdomen done,(its relatively inexpensive, compared to a CT Scan/MRI abdomen which is 10Xthe cost) to exclude any serious pathology.. go see that Doc pleez.. dont want u to suffer from a possibly easily curable condition.

Wow ..... I'm overwhelmed with you guys touching responses, it really helps.


My sit is this, I live alone, my Mom is almost 90 her car is not in working order right now it overheats in a few blocks its something I was working on and discovered out what it needs a new radiator, the old one is clogged internally and its a plastic unit they dont touch here.

Basicly all I have is my Mom and my sister both of whom have no way to help me finacially. I wish they had admitted me to the Hospital for another day then I would at least have been able to see a social worker and get aid from the state. As it is I feel I should have never been sent off on my own like I was I had to take a cab home for $42 and I was laying in the back seat groaning the whole way its been nearly 4 days now I havent really slept for over 20 minutes, I have been pissing wich they say is good but nothing else...
Ive got a gurd disorder and possible kidney failure... its all so much bs to me. I just want to feel normal Ive never been this knocked down before. normally it would take me a few seconds to whip out a short thing like this... has taken almost an hour and mistakes galore

Thanks Guys, I really apprecieate it.


Its a real devastating blow to take to find out you arent imortal like you thought you were.... I just dont want this to be the start of the downward sprial like Ive seen so many loved ones take to the end....
I dont want to die in no gawddam hospital bed with tubes and crap connected to me like my Dad and so many others did.


Yet somehow I feel thats where Im headed. And it aint where I want to go.


Im sorry about sounding so morbid but when I sat next to my Dad and watched as he drowned in his own fluids I knew right then and there it would never get that far with me. I hope you all can understand how I feel.

Im feeling a little better than I was yeaterday.... yesterday was a bad one for me.
I have a good memoery of a ride on my bike the day before this struck me down so quickly of just cutting loose like a true madman feeling that things insane pull as it spins the stack odo digits wildly towards the 200 point yanking the horizon into your face at a pace thats almost incomphrensible.... that is one thing that will always make me smile and say wow... Ill never get used to the insane rush of power when you let the horses run free. At 150 -170 or in that aera Ive had friends tell me they saw smoke coming off the rear tire as I fly past doing a wheelie I couldnt keep down the air slows the bike enough to allow the horsepower break the tire loose and while I cant feel it theres no real rpm rise you can sense it because the bike sort of wags its tail and lets you know your about to loose it if you dont let up a bit... very subtle but a definate warning. I been full of 12oz liquid courage and held it on too long and had it get very exciting a few times. A thing I refuse to do anymore if Ive been drinkin I wont go near the bike.
Guess I needent worry about that anymore since I cant drink with my ailment. The Docs say if I do it will return many times worse than it was....... and I dont want that. Too much pain for this wimp.... :shock:
