How wonderful to hear from you. It was so difficult being so far away and not be able to do anything to help. That 1st day after I found out what had happened I thought I would explode just waiting to hear how you were.
I do see some positives in this. You learned about Al's new talents, that you didn't really need 40 pairs of shoes after all AND best of all, you once again have a world cruise in your future.
Actually, the best news is that you are home & feeling better.
Keep us posted. My doorbell just rang, have to go.
More later.
