Good luck with the upcoming injections.<br /><br />Carmen(RN)- very nice poem.  Thanks for sharing.  Your work sounds like it was very interesting but frustrating.  Was it?<br /><br />Quick update- Lee&#39;s dad was transferred to a rehab hospital yesterday and Lee had his first physical therapy appt. and had cervical traction.  He does have some weakness in his right arm, so they will also be working on that.  Also taught him how to brace his head when sneezing so he does not have so much pain.  A very good first appt&#33;<br /><br />Okay, I have run out of memory; I guess it&#39;s my age.  Will have to recheck and see what I forgot&#33;<br /><br />Hi to those on land and sea trips and anyone I inadvertantly left out.  <br />Hope everyone has a happy and safe Memorial Day weekend and say a prayer for our deceased soldiers.  They deserve to be remembered&#33;<br /><br />Have a great day&#33;&#33;<br /><br />
