    Thanks for that Marion. Sounds like Lainy was trying to do too much too quickly maybe and resting sounds like a good idea I think. No doubt she will indeed have them all in stitches very soon though and seeing Kyle will give her a huge boost!!

    Hugs,

    Gavin

    I haven’t heard from Robin since yesterday Marion, the same message that you posted here so as you say we have to assume all is well.

    I’d make another joke here but wouldn’t want anyone to be in stitches, especially Lainy!!

    Okay okay, I’ll get my coat!!

    Hugs,

    Hi Lee,

    Thanks for letting us know about your husband and I am very happy to hear that your husband has had a great response to the meds. You so did the right thing in getting him to the hospital asap and I hope that the team can get to the bottom of the cause of the problems. Hoping that he gets home real soon and please let us know how things go.

    My best wishes to you both,

    Gavin

    Thanks for that Marion. Better to be in velcro than stitches me thinks!!

    Thanks for that Marion. Sounds like it was the same issue that we had before with the copied and pasted links not working once pasted elsewhere. Guess we will all have to do our own searching on the site but as you say with helping with key words and phrases etc.

    Thanks Marion, and you too Rick!

    Duke, definitely a different method of working out time in AZ! Not just a different time zone from Scotland but also different method of measuring time to the rest of us, must be something to do with all of that sun they get there!

    I give you a week before you are back on here Lainy, and I think that may be a tad generous! As per Duke’s suggestion, I’ll pretend to be you and get on with the cleaning here then!

    Good luck with it all Momma and remember, prep for surgery does NOT mean you have to sneak in some house cleaning before you go to the hospital!!

    See you when you come back (in a week!)

    Gavin
