Sally's sister Sylvia emailed us all tonight with the great news that Sally's breathing tube was removed from her nose (and throat) today and that she had been moved to a semi-private room outside the ICU. She talked with Sylvia for a while, no mean feat with her vocal cords freshly freed of the constriction of the breathing tube.

Great news, working in a university as I do, we experience periodic outbreaks of meningitis which are always traumatic. I hope her first words weren't "get that banjo outta here!" (Only kidding!)

Wonderful, wonderful, news there, 'Seed!! Still keeping her in my thoughts as she goes through her recovery.

Now that she can talk, remember to let her complain and grump abit when she feels like it. She needs to get some of that frustration out that I'm sure she's feeling now. But, tell her that if she gets too grumpy, you'll be doing a banjo marathon right there in her room until she cheers up. That'll speed her recovery up, I tell ya!! *BG*

All the best to Sally and her family, Áine

Way to go! Keep up the recovery...banjos have been known to cause all sorts of relapses, so be VERRRRRRY careful!

That is wonderful to hear. Good for her but I'm sorry you won't have a captive audience for banjo playing:-) I'm sure it helped a lot.

Great news! Hope Sally will be recovered enough to sing a few Christmas Carols - with or without banjo accompaniment!

Hi Guys, This is Der Echt Micca returninig to you, I will posst properly elsewhere, but what wonderful news especially on the day they let me home, Charles , Print the various threads and take them in to her, if its feasable, even my very professional nurses( at The Royal London) who have seen it all were impressed with the effect it had on my general wellbeing. However if she is in a situation or physical state where laughing may be akward/painful/etc give here Cletus' posts later. It hurt like hell and I laughed so hard the nurses came running!!!

Micca, glad to hear you're back on the giving side (that's absurd--I was about to say "the giving side of the circle"--circles ain't got sides, except insides and outsides)(well, maybe it does make sense: the circle are those projecting their healing energies inward, and now that your healing is well on its way, you're back outside, giving good healing)(I started this particular parenthesis with another of my stupid pedantic asides [is an "aside" inside or outside?] but thought better of it). Anyway, it's good to have you back on your feet and on the outside of the circle (if you are on your feet instead of your back[side], are you on your downside? I'd better quit this before someone goes upside my head).

Great news about Sally!! Tell her we're still rooting for her and for a complete recovery. I'm sure that all of her friends are happy to hear her voice again.

B'Seed, what can I say, except GO TO BED!! Put the harmonica down and shut your eyes. You know, you can have too much of a good thing, ya know! Congrats are on the other thread about your triumph with the band. Nightie night, now . . .
