Good to hear things are progressing apace. Hope you got my tape -- I sent a copy so Karen can listen to the joyous crinkle of bubblewrap as she convalesces. Or coalesces. Or is it ...

Warning: I had to take Coumadin for quite a while a few years back and every time anyone brushed past me, I got a bruise. My kids were 8 and 13 at the time, so there was a lot of brushing past, and I ended up looking like an overripe banana. (Very attractive -- and we wonder why I never remarried?) It was, of course, a small price to pay for blood that stopped congregating where it shouldn't ("Uh-oh, cheese it, guys. Here comes Officer Coumadin... better break it up ..."), but I did look moderately pummeled for the duration ... I wanted to take a nice soak in under-eye concealer ...

Much love beaming your way, PansyRue
