Hi EzJim, YAY! Congratulations on getting out of the hospital!! You must be a very strong, determined human--and one with a great sense of humor, it sounds like! Because I've just joined the forums, I haven't ever talked with you before. By reading the many posts, I can feel your very special place in everyone's hearts! I am really truly delighted for you and look forward to hearing more good news of your journey through recovery. God bless you and keep you -- keep on keeping us all! You've been in my prayers since I read posts from, to, and about you. Take care! I look forward to meeting you more in cyberspace.
Carol
