I dropped by the board this morning for the first time in nearly a month, and of course the first thing I saw was Ed’s announcement about **Lynn**. I thought I made a post, but it never showed up, so either I screwed up or it was snack time for the hamsters. **Lynn** , I’ve spoken with my horde of cats, and they have volunteered to hold a ‘group purr’ for you each evening at bedtime. Hopefully, the well-known healing power of the Purr, multiplied many times, will be available for you to draw on to assist in your recovery. So, if you feel a strange vibration each evening, don’t waste time worrying - just relax and enjoy it. 😉 Please come back to us soon - it has been a pleasure to share company and conversation with you on the SDMB these few years, and I’m looking forward to many more years of your presence. {{{{{ **Lynn** }}}}} ---

Although you don’t know me yet (how well can you REALLY know someone before their 2,000th post?), I wish you well and speedy recovery. God, I live for seeing the speedy and efficient way with which you shut people up in the Pit! Hurry back! ---

Best wishes **Lynn.** You’ll be in my thoughts. I’ll sacrifice a few pieces of chocolate to the “get well gods”. Take care of yourself. ---

Heres hoping that you are feeling better REAL soon. Candles have been lit and rituals held in your honor. Please come back soon. We miss your hardhanded responses. ---

Complications of diabetes? Yeowtch! Congestive heart failure? :eek: Double yeowtch! And the whole leg-swollen-up-as-bug-as-the-Lusitania thing can’t be much fun either. I’d like to send you some get-well chocolates, but since you’re diabetic those would have to be those thick squares of unsweetend baking chocolate, and chomping on unsweetened baking chocolate is only slightly less unpleasant that eating straight coffee grounds. So instead I’ll bop one of those nutcases on the head that’s trying to shut down genetic engineering and stem-cell research, since those two branches of medical research are probably our best bet for finding a cure for diabetes. ---

Leg problems. Heart problems. Internet problems. Egads. Would you like us to fling some trolls your direction so you can keep busy with target practice? Flinging aside, I am keeping you in my thoughts. ---

I know you said no animal sacrifices but that box of animal crackers was just asking for it (sitting oh so innocently by a tall glass of cold milk). Get better soon **Lynn** ---
