...and the doctors keep praying, "Lord, give me patients."

It's a hell of a roller coaster, Captain. But we, me and probably you too, ride it, screaming all the way, and learning to like the positives of it quite a bit when we can. Like single malt scotch, the taste can be acquired. Still the long dips can be lonesome at best. Just be glad you see a light in your tunnel, and that there is a way to, hopefully, rehab it for you. And a decent community is here for you.

Onward and upward!
Yer old friend, in folklore and jokelore,
