Dont you read anything you didn't write? :-)

Rep. John Murtha went into the hospital for gall bladder surgery and his "Doctor" nicked his intestine and peritonitis killed him. My carotid artery is awful close to where he is going to be cutting.

I'm off to Boston today for the cut and paste. It's a major operation which will cost me much of my voice box. It can take up to 8 hours, and I will need a breathing tube for a week or so. And, there is a 10% chance that I will need that forever.

I won't be able to keep up with e mails or the mudcat but Jacqui will.
