I'M STILL STANDING"

craig rep for (utah-colorado-wyoming and sundance catalog) always the clown and a great guy...there's jason again...heading to utah with michele today....be safefrom the front..brucie,gary,craig, jason,barry,tom mc......
as elton john would say...."better than i ever did".......today i was "pluged in" at 11 ish and unpluged at 5:07.."but whose counting"..went fast....lot's of family visits...and a special quest star...my new found friend patricia.....who went through her chemo treatment already( i posted about her a few weeks ago)....she was there for a follow up and took a chance i was in the chair......she looked great...any how we were talking and i was in the famous corner room with the only good view of the outside world and near the bathrooms.....and a fellow chemo- patient stepped out of the bathroom and Just passed out right in front of us....well i took 3 steps towards her and then realized i was still hooked to my IV POLE...and almost ripped my needles out ( if patricia hadn't said you can't do that hooked up i just might have)..all the while i am yelling " women down...women down"..and 5 nurses came over to help...people.... i thought she was GONE...no kidding...eyes rolled up her head.....she came to a few minutes later.and they rushed her to the main hospital....all the while a curb your episode was on pause just before that and it was a frame of larry david saying " pray for her"...weird..that was on while the EMT PEOPLE WERE BRING HER BACK TO LIFE....BIZARE...

oh well we wish her well and will send our tye-dyed love her way........i feel ok...just a little sea -sick and tired...at least i am not "sick and tired" of it all yet......two-5 days of this crappy feeling and i will be standing tall.......loved seeing my team of friends...i mean how lucky can a man be to have a complete team of friends.........still pinching myself...( well not to hard these days)
