God bless you sir. Getting old is tough but the alternative is worse. Please persevere for yourself and for the benefit of those of us who read your musings.

Happy to hear from you. Like SCA, I had begun to wonder whether you had jumped in with both feet. Keep the faith, my friend.

So long as it's still just one foot in the gravy.

Take care Bill and get home soon.

Try to be a happy patient and suuuuper cooperative and maybe they will let you out early?

Or the opposite,

Dunno.

I used to be a nurse and when I did hospital work, actually it was the nice patients we did not like to leave, so….

Boy do I have some stories…

Best wishes for a speedy recovery

Thank you. Maybe you can clear something up for me. What is magical about 14 minutes? At several hospitals, when I called for a nurse for something I needed but was in an alarmed bed, an hour later or longer I would call back, then another hour and the nurse would inevitably say the request appeared on her computer screen fourteen minutes earlier. All nurses, two separate hospital systems.

..... I was a floor nurse for about 5 years and that was 100 years ago. We still used bottles for IVs and metal syringes LOL

You should ask them. I know nothing about computers in the hospital.
