Birte - what a sad story - but what a wonderful man your father was!!
Ol'cs - GOOD FOR YOU!! Woo Hoo! Sounds like that new car is just what you needed! Enjoy!
Carolyn - That proceedure is one that I'll be having in January - yes - I'm at that age as well.
Steve & Vicky - Enjoy that fall weather - the leaves turning colors was my favorite time of year. I miss that in the Arizona desert.
As for me, my arm is out of the sling and I'm going to physical therapy. New x-rays this week, and then back to the doctor for a final check on my arm.
Best to all!
