Got the news today.
I've been on sick leave since August 4th, 2004. Saw the MD today and said I can go back to work October 25! 
Originally he wanted me to take 6 months off.
But I don't have enough sick time to cover that.

Think of it this way, you have recovered and are well enough to go back to work. That is a very good thing indeed. Glad to see that your previous health problems are straightened out and your back to your normal life.

If I were to take that much time off, I would find it very hard to go back to work. My foreman at work is getting ready to retire in a few months, he takes off at least one day a week on sick leave.

Actually he said, "Whenever you think you're ready." I could have said "after Christmas" and I think he would have said, "Ok." That gives me about 3 weeks to get her running and a couple days to road test.
If I didn't have this time off, it would have taken me another year, working here & there on weekends, to get my engine transplanted and running.
