| 1211216 | 2011-06-27 01:18:00 | My very best wishes for a speedy recovery, and full use of the damaged digits again. These accidents happen so fast and can be so traumatic, especially at our age. Hang in there, and do what Maryann says. No argument!! :thumbs: | Richard (739) | ||

| 1211220 | 2011-06-27 06:19:00 | saws sold the next day. those times above...start at 11.30 pm and on into the following am. no sleep that night. cannot speak too highly of the staff and the care i recieved. half an hour ago i was showered by a home help lady and now iam sitting here eating chippies a slurping a cup of tea . using this laptop given by a pf1-er i wont mention his name, but his namesake got nailed up on a x for dipping into the till, a long time ago. needless to say, the painkillers are getting a hammering. hospital tomorrw to see the surgeon again. i hope he is satified with it and doesnt want a second go. pj |

| 1211222 | 2011-06-27 07:56:00 | Good to see your sense of humor is still intact. If you want to look at this from a computer nerds point of view - you're still counting in a decimal base of 10. If it was bad enough you'd be binary, or base 8, although with all that splitting of digits you were running a good chance of become haxadecimal instead! Here's to a rapid improvement re the pain, and best wishes for your Mrs with her surgical adventures. |
