Back in Feb, I become very ill. Turns out I had pnuemonia. It did a realy number to me. I lost my memory. I was in respiratory distress when the paramedics got to me. By the time I made it to the hosiptal, I had full blown coronary in progress. They inserted a tracheostomy. It took 3 weeks to determine if I would survive.

When I finally came to, I have lost the ability to walk, so I spent 4 months in rehab. Today I can walk about 45 yards with a walker. I am working on it every day.

So, If you wondered were I was.....

Pete

Welcome back, Mr. M.
When you've walked "in the valley of the shadow" you get a new perspective on life. I hope The Boss grants you a full recovery and that in time, you're able to fully participate with us again.
Be advised that I personally missed your quality commentary and excellent conduct on this BBS.
Best wishes from eastern Ontario.
Ian Nixon.

Good to hear you're getting better, Pete. Keep plugging away! What happened to you is probably a good reminder to the rest of us to get the pneumonia vaccine.

Glad you're on the mend. Don't wander off, I'll need to pick your brain again about Belgian doubles!
