Mentioned to MG who broke the rules but no problem.

Been in hospital. 3 weeks inside, a few days on either end of that. Lung went down again, this time couldn't ignore, much, much pain and seemed way worse than other times. They did surgery again. Hopefully will be better now.

No funny hospital stories this time. mostly drugged up. Poor boy had much visiting and pet-caring to do.

Seem okay now. Still pretty painful. Still taking some pills. But back home is good. More work to do than I even want to think about. Still tired.

Checked email first time again yesterday. Basically firebombed. And felt terribly guilty about not letting anyone here know -- of course could not have Boy do anything since nobody knows about this thing...

Anyway. Probably will be a little slow from me for a while yet, between recovering and the mountains of work I must pick through somehow. please be kind.

Much love to you all
