Guest guest Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 Hey Marilyn, I hope you and Harry have a really wonderful time!! Sounds nice to spend it with such a dear friend.. Thanks for all your constant, selfless help (you need this vacation!! I think it's over-due with the surgery n all') and I am sure we will all be quoting you! BTW- How did that appointment go with the pain doctor? How are you doing with all of that now?

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 <g> I trust ya'll to be even tempered and helpful here on the list We'll try to behave ourselves ;-) Have a fun and safe trip. Kim H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 Mara, Yes, we're headed for Dragon*Con. www.dragoncon.org for those interested in such weirdness. Ireland would have been lots more fun than cancer surgery -- not to mention less expensive. For what we spent for ramps, super poles, extra vitamins, plus size hospital gowns, and all the rest, we could have taken that trip to Ireland! I know I would have had more fun. Travel food includes beef and broccoli pie and spinach-stuffed pork roast. Also hard boiled eggs, souffle bread and crackers, avocado chicken salad. Probably a few other things if I have the time. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 Have a good trip. I'm envious about you knowing Anne McCaffrey, one of my favorite authors. I expect you have some fascinating and entertaining conversations [grin]. It's not the same as visiting Ireland, I know, but at least you will have a good time. I'm sure we'll all behave ourselves here while you're gone... Have a great time. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Gustav doesn't come close to your house or mine!
