Thread Name: Kendall in hospital (not any more)
Subject: RE: Kendall in hospital
Thanks for the good news, Mary. Talked with Kendall on Sunday. Told him to hug the damned pillow like crazy if he felt a cough coming on, just as Spaw advises. Fortunately, Kendall quit smoking a long time ago, so the tendency to cough may be less for him than it was for me. I didn't quit smoking until I went to the hospital for the bypass.
    Anybody remember the Far Side cartoon of the surgeons huddled around the operating table. One of them says something like "Are you satisfied with your grip, Worthington? I am with mine. HAVE YOU MADE YOUR WISH?" It was on the bulletin board in the recovery room when I woke up. I brought it home and framed it.
    So, Kendall, if you can't hug your pillow. Call for a nurse!
