Hey John, talk about TALL?  My dad was born in Sweden-Mom-born in Canada.  Dad was 6'6" mom about 5'.. My youngest son is 6'7" He learned to duck at an early age.. I have a sister at 6', the other sister about my height. Boy did we have trouble finding long pants back then in our teen age. If mom got mad at us, she would drag a chair to the side of the wall and stand on it and when we came by? SLAP! "how I gave birth to u big horses" she would say..  Were not horses type, just long and my sisters were rather sassy!! Me? Sweet as can be.. haha-I was not like them at all.. I am the oldest, and knew that my mom needed me to help her out on many things.. Like where did those other 2 go???? Find them!! Miss my tiny mom.. 

Nervous break downs are not easy to come of MOM!!  Don't know that u did until you came out it.. So do what I did years back, fall into that so called black hole, trust me it is so much easy'er to climb out than hanging over that black hole..for so long.. then your on your way..

Waste of time trying to hang in there!! Wish I knew that.. 

Oh frabjous day, calooh, calaigh

She chortled in her joy!!

No, the words are meaningless but they build an image in your mind. And why am I chorteling in my joy?  Doc was just in. My blood numbers have dropped into line at normal, and my inflammation markers are down.  Pain in the rump stump has greatly lessened due to topical hydrocortisone treatment.  All that's left is the mega pain in my gut.  He decided to keep me one more day on some IV meds then I can go home and do out patient!!  Hooray!! My little sanctuary is getting close!! I have appreciated your kind words and compassion whilst in the midst of my pity party... thank you!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHH, At last something to look forward to.. Your on the mend!! Happy days ahead for you! Your sanctuary awaits you!!! It is all yours!! No place like home.. 

Hooray!!
