A while back, I posted a request for good thoughts concerning an upcoming hospital stay that might result in my losing a foot to diabetes. I recieved a ton of good thoughts and prayers, and it seems that I'll be losing all the toes on my left foot, but the foot will remain. I can't help but believe that all the good thoughts contributed to this outcome. Thanks everyone. I'll be going under the knife on Thursday to have the last two toes removed and a small bit of foot, then it'll all be over, except for learning how to welk again.   And if anyone knows Bruce Murdoch, tell him I said thanks for the CD that he sent me. It's a really nice recording, and I'd thank him myself, but apparently, you need a person's mudcat name to PM someone, and doesn't seem to have one.
