Guest guest Posted October 30, 2003 Report Share Posted October 30, 2003 Hi , Sorry to hear you've joined the belly-scar club, although it sounds like the improvements in surgical and recuperative techniques since I had mine out in the '60's are wonderful. I was made to lie in bed a week, and couldn't even stand straight after that! The discussion has indeed seemed to burn out for the moment--I think we are all glad of it, too. Much more interesting to get back to being helpful. Personally, I'm looking forward to your having some computer time, although the 8-month-old might resent it. Best to you in your recovery, Terry > > Reply-To: graves_support > Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2003 10:38:16 -0600 > To: <graves_support > > Subject: From the moderator > > Greetings all! > > My abject apologies for not attending to the RAI discussion earlier.

I was in bed with a compressed disc (disk?) for 10 days on doctor's orders with a six month old, who wasn't that curious yet so she stayed on my bed alot of the time. > Thankfully, my friends and neighbors are charting out time to help > as we speak. Not to worry. A speedy recovery and enjoy the rest, Fay ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the internet in years - Juno SpeedBand!
