Thanks for the reminder Christine. Having just struck midnight and started St. Patrick's Day when everybody's Irish, are ye ne "cailin" (* used by the Irish in the USA and Australia as a way of connecting to their Irish roots.) I am fortunate indeed. The recurrence caught me off guard, like an uppercut to the solar plexus and it is especially inappropriate on a forum like this to forget how much worse it could be. Funny you mention Italy as last night as I watched the steady drip drip drip of the gravity feed while my wife ate her dinner,and we reminisced about the wonderful food in Rome. Praying for a miracle for you.
