Thank all of you for your well wishes.

Mr. Dixie spent most of Dec. in & out of hospital for a recurring problem. His 3rd trip in was Christmas Day. He is still in hospital. That stay included double pneumonia on top of a collapsed lung.
Then I got pneumonia. So for 3 days we were one room apart in the same ICU.
ON day 4 he was transferred to a larger hospital in Pensacola, had a Cat Scan where a tumor was identified.
Unnamed tumor was "too close to his heart" to open chest to fix lung. So they used a laperscope ( I don't know correct name for it)..tube and cameras...to fix the " holes" in his lung. Had no idea there were holes, plural.
I came home 2 days ago.
He is still in hospital, very weak and tired, but breathing is easier he said.
He also said "they" had managed to break "some ribs".

We are a 2 hour drive from Pensacola. Communicating via his smart phone and my tablete mail.

I blame it all on Trump.
