Greetings friends,



first, let me say thank you so much for the lovely messages you have sent my ailing husband. Contrary to what he will most certainly tell you, he is NOT dying and has come through surgery like a champ. He is currently recuperating at Arlington Memorial Hospital and I anticipate he will be home tomorrow afternoon. He is in Room 5107 if you want to call him but please don't call tonight. The drugs are working and he is not his usual smart alecky self.  If you would like to call him, please call after 10am so he can wake up and be nice.



Basically what happened is he wasn't feeling well this morning, went to work, then called me around 4:45 am to come pick him up. While on the way home, he looked at me and said (this coming from a man who LOATHES doctors) "Baby, I think we need to go to the hospital." Well, being the loving wife that I am, I sailed down Cooper St going in the vicinity of about 65 mph and got him to the hospital but quick. He went under the knife at 1:30 and was out of recovery by 6pm. He is sleeping right now.



Please continue to email him happy thoughts. I printed out several and gave them to him this evening. They certainly lifted his spirits. I am so thankful that I live in a barony that is so wonderful and caring. Thank you to the people who kept me sane (and fed) today. You know who you are. Without you, I could not have made it through today.


I'll let you all know when he's home.



A grateful and exhausted...
