    Thanks everybody. I'm lucky to be here, and lucky to have people like you giving a **** that I am.

    Brett, Stephie and Theresa won't let me out of their sight, and I do have one of those electronic leashes.

    Al, yup! Looked death in the eyes and laughed! That's the other part of the nervous reaction I do when confronted. If this was a full-size image you would've seen me wet myself as the first part.

    George I'm glad you were able to survive a DAA. I've had young patients in their prime of their lives in excellent physical shape not survive one.
    You stared down at death and make it go back empty handed!
    Let me know when you're well enough to misbehave and
    I'll drive out to brooklyn and get you a dozen bagels.

    Glad to hear that you are alive, kicking and that you have the chance to heal up George. Just as a reminder, try not to let this happen again *wink*. That's NOT what retirement's all about.

    Here's to wishing you a speedy recovery and many years of happiness to enjoy with family. Oh, happy belated birthday and I hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving.
