Subject: RE: Kendall at Mass Gen. 2.16.10 From: Bat Goddess Date: 25 Feb 10 - 09:08 PM Welcome home, Kendall! Best place to enjoy all this driving rain is inside, warm, dry and cuddled up with your darlin' wife and your loyal dog. (You did pry him loose from Mary, didn't you?) Just talked to Tom and he may be coming home tomorrow. Hugs all 'round, Linn |
Subject: RE: Kendall at Mass Gen. 2.16.10 From: gnu Date: 25 Feb 10 - 08:59 PM Well, Mr. Backseat Driver.... I assume by the fact that you posted that means the "piss poor driver" you just went bad on musta got you home so you could post that. Good thing she didn't dump you off in the rain somewhere around when you started weening... like just outside a Boston? Jaysus man... don't bite the hand eh? After you get comfy, join us in the cellar... if there is any room. (Glad to have you back, bud.) |

Subject: RE: Kendall at Mass Gen. 2.16.10 From: jacqui.c Date: 25 Feb 10 - 05:17 PM Happy birthday Cuilionn - live long, die happy. We got home about 20 minutes ago after a long and very wet drive. Many thanks to Mary, who did the lion's share of the driving in really foul weather. Kendall had a final scope by one of Dr Z's partners, who was most impressed with his recovery, and we got some good advice from Sonny, the senior technical assistant in the office, about how to ensure fast healing of the remaining hole in Kendall's neck. We have a home nurse coming in tomorrow to set up some of the machinery that has come home with us, but, for the rest of today and tomorrow, it is going to be a case of just curling up and resting for us both. This past week and a half has been long and hard and we are both glad that it is over. I can only give thanks for the support of both our families and friends and of the wonderful folk on the 'Cat, who have seen us both through this. You made our lives a lot lighter than might otherwise have been the case. Thank you all. |
Subject: RE: Kendall at Mass Gen. 2.16.10 From: SINSULL Date: 25 Feb 10 - 05:14 PM We're baa-aaack. Tired and wet. Portland is expecting 8-9" of rain. My mantra - thank god it's not snow. Jacqui and I have been flying since about 8AM this morning. Cars, cabs, feet, elevators, etc. Kendall is home although he almost spent half the trip on a roof rack. He has problems with my driving. But I got him and Jacqui and the car home unscathed. Now for a shot of something hard. By the way, he looks wonderful and downed a burger and fries. SINS |
Subject: RE: Kendall at Mass Gen. 2.16.10 From: kendall Date: 25 Feb 10 - 05:13 PM Cuilion, of course I remember you! That was a real treat. Happy birthday. Ok folks, we are home safe sound and dry. Time to put this thread to rest. I thank each and everyone of you for all your love and support. I might have made it without it but I sure as hell done want to go back to find out! |

Subject: RE: Kendall at Mass Gen. 2.16.10 From: katlaughing Date: 25 Feb 10 - 02:02 PM Happy Birthday, Cuilionn. Welcome home, Kendall! |
Subject: RE: Kendall at Mass Gen. 2.16.10 From: gnu Date: 25 Feb 10 - 01:59 PM So that's why I always wonder who that is when you post. But, since your bedside manner seems good, many happies at ya. |
Subject: RE: Kendall at Mass Gen. 2.16.10 From: Amos Date: 25 Feb 10 - 01:39 PM YEs, and happy birthday to you, Cuillon. A |
Subject: RE: Kendall at Mass Gen. 2.16.10 From: Cuilionn Date: 25 Feb 10 - 01:37 PM Kendall-- You may not remember me; I don't post often and I'm a few ripples out from the inner circle of groupies, but I did sing at your bedside a few years back on a visit with Fred & Julia. Today's my birthday, and Maine is awash in a depressing rush of rain-that-should-be-snow. My farm truck is stuck in the mud in a driveway that should be hard-frozen. Nonetheless, I'm happy. Rain is better than snow for your drive home, and I'm thrilled that that's where you're headed. I consider the news a birthday present, of sorts. So... happy birthday to me, but most especially, HAPPY HOMECOMING!!! |

I wish I'd known sooner......Say, bring a few lobster along if there's room. I have this little village butcher shop here that has the finest beef and beautifully cut..........I'll have Karen stop for some huge spuds and you ain't lived til you have one of Spaw's Greek salads. How about some Ohio State gear? Maybe some chocolate "buckeyes? Spaw |
