Hoping you are making progress with the the bronchitis rapperee, and the most helpful medical path is taken for pat.likewise hoping , janie ,that you begin to discern some progress to allay the frustration.   Tommy has been off school with a supposedly infectious skin complaint , but they ...hospital... were unable to take bloods and did,nt take a swab. We sent him back to school today. We also have a domestic crisis with one of our daughters and she is in bad mental health as a result. Seems to be getting a bit choppy for the voyage at present , let's hope for calmer seas.   Blessings.         Pete.
