Linn and Tom, I've just been through some scary conjecturing on my docs' parts..spent many nights and days wondering what the hell and not getting enough data to really research much on my own. Drove me nuts. I called my scientist niece who reminded me I did NOT have enough data to go off on worst case scenario tangents which I was doing and not helping myself or anyone around me. I remembered my mantra was "Right here, Right now, All is well, and I am safe and sound." I also put an image of Daffy Duck in my head which would come up whenever my mind started to run away with scary thoughts of the future. When I did that visualisation, I'd see him jumping up and down, steam coming out of his ears and him yelling, with his spitting lisp, "No! Sssssstop!" Made me laugh and stopped those negative thoughts right away.

So, until Monday, Tom grab a pillow when you have to cough and hug it to your tummy, it will help; Linn, cup your hands and pat his back to keep stuff loosened up in his lungs; and, Tom be sure to breath deeply AND blow it all out as deeply as possible, than will help with lungs, getting rid of anaesthesia, etc. And, you can borrow or clone Daffy, any time.

Positive visualisation and loads of good thoughts, plus plentiful thanks being given for a complete and speedy healing. This or something better for the highest good of all concerned. SO mote it be!

In Peace Profound,
