May 2012

I talked to MFM this morning while I was out running errands, he was still in ICU, but only becasue of no regular rooms available, the heart rythym thing seems to have resoved itself and he definitley wanted me to pass on his thanks and greetings to everybody. He thinks he woll be out in another day or so and he sure sounds fine so again, I am glad they are maybe being a little over-cautious after what happened (more than once!) last year.

I bet he is starting to jones for the internet by now. If it looks like there is going to be a longer stay I will try to get in and get his laptop to him, but knock on wood, he should be out of there pretty fast.

Just now got off the phone with MFM! [View all] CaliforniaPeggy May 2012 OP
