I'm back

I got discharged finally last evening, and am staying with Carolyn in her condo till Tuesday,

I can't say how touched at all the lovely comments and good wishes; I got quite a bit teary to tell the truth; you all are a wonderful group, and I really really thank you!! Oh how I have missed you while stuck in the hospital ....BAD OFF withdrawal symptoms!!

I felt awful on the Saturday, very short of breath and extremely fatigued, asked my neighbor Jim for a ride to the ER, expecting a change of meds and a diuretic for the leg swelling ... they took one look at me and admitted me. To make a long story short, COPD, anemia, slight congestive heart failure, malignant colon mass. I've had an upper and lower GI and a CAT scan, lots of transfusions, a gazillion meds needles and vital sign takings.... SO glad to be out of there. I''m stabaiized now, and go in for the surgery on the 11th. More good vibes would be appreciated, guys, thanks so much for all the4 support. And I.m very grateful to Christopher and Carilyn, who I asked to keep you informed, and to Mags for her help.

Will do a separate thread about Leia!

Really pleased that you are back Eileen - the Games Section is just not the same without your input. You seem to have gone through the mill just lately, but I hope that you will soon be fighting fit again. I will keep you in my thoughts - Kind regards. Rena.
