Linn, I still have one cat o' nine tails left. It's yours if you want it but I think Tom's roomies might object. He really does have to cough and do the breathing exercises. Don't make me come down there and pound on his back!

And you: GET SOME REST. The last thing you need right now is a cold. Eat, sleep, and sit down with a cup of tea or glass of wine. Let yourself unwind.

Give Tom my love.
Mary
