After the surgery, when I was speaking with the surgeon, he mentioned to watch out for falls when getting out of bed. I was curious as to why and asked, he said it was because lifetime muscle memory sticks around, you swing the legs out of bed and stand up...and are missing a leg, and fall. Makes perfect sense.

He was quite unhappy when he woke up from surgery and said we should have just let him die, the day after he was doing better in terms of understanding. He has acquired a urinary problem of some sort, can't piss and they pulled a liter of fluid out of him after surgery, and he is still on a catheter.

An underlying heart condition is complicating all of it, and will be the ultimate cause of his demise.

Don't need to know why, nor do I care why.

Exactly! It is like trying to solve a cross word puzzle....and you don't even want the clue to start putting letters in the boxes!

Such is the value of having the independent variable when doing systems analysis. I certainly won't object to you not wanting to know, so you just keep not caring and carry on!
