[mother’s voice on]

You stay in that bed, do you hear me? What are you doing messing around on the computer, you’ll get a headache! Do you need anything? Would you like some soup? Just rest, I’ll be right here.

Sorry to hear of your trouble, **Lynn**. I was in the hospital myself, so I missed this thread til now.

IANAD, but I do prescribe a healthy dosage of Straight Dope™ to aid in your recovery.

God speed! ;j

I was going to suggest that my sister could probably smuggle in as many chocolates as you want if you’re going to Baylor, but that might not be the best thing given the diabetes stuff. Maybe we can try for a nice salad or something instead? 🙂

Get well, Lynn!

(Wow. I go away for a few days and _this_ happens.)

**Lynn** , I wish a speedy recovery for you. It’s now Monday, so based on your post, you’re going to be in the hospital today. I hope everything goes smoothly.

Get well soon!!!

Hang tough Lynn.

I’ll burn a chicken under my statue of Offler the crocodile god tonight.

Well, I’ll brown it nicely before eating it, but I won’t enjoy it!

:eek:

Uh, I was going to try to make a gallows-humor joke about not letting the dogs lick the leaky leg juice, but it was too oogy to complete.

Want to borrow my Supercape? As it said in **Jack Batty** ’s sig, it doesn’t allow you to fly, but it’s warm and comforting.

My dad died of congestive heart failure. Take oodles of care of yourself.
