It turns out that my mother had a staff infection in her heart. She was able to go home (after one day shy of a month in the hospital) last week. My father has been out of the hospital for the last three weeks. He's starting to get some of his old strength back. Both are doing remarkably well considering that I was preparing to say my goodbyes to both of them when I first got down there. I'd like to thank all you fine people for sending so many good thoughts in their (and my) direction. Life!..........Phhhweeeuuh! And yes, both Alembics went with me, and saw as much playing time as circumstances warranted. Thanks again all! bracheen Senior Member Username: bracheen Post Number: 645 Registered: 11-2003 Posted on Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - 4:23 pm:    Welcome back Hollis. I'm glad that all is well.

It's great that they are healing up! -Bob richbass939 Junior Username: richbass939 Post Number: 49 Registered: 11-2004 Posted on Tuesday, December 21, 2004 - 6:37 pm:    I'm happy for you and your folks.
