Hi Steve,

I hope everything goes well and that you'll be back at your keyboard soon afterwards.

Take care,

I got a mate just gone back to England, shall I put some Chorley Cake on order!!!

Thanks Sharon
Awwww you remembered.

I'd love some Chorley Cakes but I think the surgeon and the cardiologist might object.

Thank you and yes it's at the Foothills I report to Unit 92 sometime on Tuesday. Will find out what time Monday afternoon.

I don't think I'll be wandering the halls for a day or two.

A very good friend is one of my nurses from the time I was in intensive care before my last bypass.

My cousin married one of his nurses, he was a long stay patient after driving into the back of a lorry which was parked with no lights, on a corner .

My father married one of his nurses. He was a very long-stay patient, after a bullet-stomach interface (Burma).

My bro, who has recently finished a 7-week radiotherapy course, is now dating a woman he met at the clinic (patient).
