Yes, I being older than most on the forum am just making simple observations. I have been told on 3 occasions I would not be leaving the hospital. I thought I had a lot of good friends. Through it all, only my Cathy has been by my side. I think that is one had a truly significant other, they are most likely to be your only true friend. At times, even they won't be there. If you have one, then you are truly lucky. Keep them and be there for them in there time of need.
Enough yucky stuff, your turn.
