Hey Riccardo, you make me blush with your eulogy!
As to the precision of my posts, I'm one of those 'self-proclaimed analytical types', as Todd calls them, and hate to make statements that leave room for guessing. (BTW, Todd, I still resent that you didn't drop the 'self-proclaimed' :-)
At times I sat down to write a poison pen reply, but since I'm a very slow typist, I usually am chilled out before my composition is finished. On the other hand, I need a new keyboard every other month.....
Now I should return the compliments, but I was standing in the last row when these talents were distributed. So I just say:
My sister is now 17 days from her operation for a gut closure and all the tubing and other hardware have been removed. She can get up for a short time and eat the standard issue of hospital food (yuck). Luckily, she hasn't been hit with CH. There is hope she may search her Easter eggs at home.
An interesting side note: She was put on oxygen, with a mask, at 4 liters/min overnights, to prevent a pneumonia (heavy smokers beware, that's what's waiting for you). So we shouldn't worry to much about side effect with our 10 to 20 minutes oxygen sucking.
Thanks again, Riccardo, for your compliments,
and PFNAD's to all,
Ueli
