Well, I'm back from 10 days of shear hell & tortue riddled with love, caring, family, friends - some new, some old. Also, I'm amazed & apalled with the nursing staff at my favorite little tortue chamber. Very mixed feelings, just in case I was vague at all. Damn glad to be home. Much bigger heart, half a tongue, 10 pounds lighter & TIRED!!! Blah, blah, blah!!! Glad to back on the boards. Welcome to any & all the newcomers. You'll find a lot of love & info here. Hello to all the regulars & I truly hope all is well or getting better!
