Hoping for a full recovery.

What a year.

Mom get well fast!!!!!!!!! you know DADDY CAN'T BE LEFT ALONE WITHOUT ADULT SUPERVISION he has already broken the new email address

on a serious note Steve told me Susan was very very sick but she is responding to treatment well and her color is returning. she's coughing all the junk out of her lungs(which is a good thing)he hopes to have her home bye the end of the week if she continues to improve at this pace.
Now let's just hope Steve's on his best behavior when she returns home so she does not bash him on his soft little head

one good thing there new house is finished refurbishing and it looks great Susan did a great job picking the things for the new house

Best wishes

Steve,

Please tell Susan to get well soon, and remind her that healing is a personal thing, helped by the right medication, but largely driven from within by the wish and drive to get well!

Best regards from your friend in sunny South Africa.

Here's some more Best Wishes and Get Wells!

Glad to hear she is recovering.

Steve,

We wish your wife a quick and full recovery.
WE will keep her in our prayers.

It has been a hell of a year for the two of them. Lets hope and pray that with on coming of summer over there, finally getting into the new home, matters will improve and the hurt and anger will recede.

Sorry to hear this, hope your wife makes a full recovery soon Steve.

Dave

Speedy recovery to Susan!

wishing a speedy recovery...

Susan, Get well soon!

Best regards, D. Nelson

Best wishes for a speedy recovery.


.

our prayers are with you

Folks

Thanks for your kind words.

She's still in hospital and still on steroid & antibiotic IVs and oxygen but at least she's now approaching a more normal colour.

We still don't know when they'll let her come home but whenever that happens and assuming we can find someone to cat sit for us, I guess we'll abandon working on the house for a while and go take it easy for a few days.

Glad that she's doing better, but make sure that she rests and does what the docs say and makes a complete recovery!

Steve.....we are praying for a speedy recovery.

Things like that happen when you hang around Hooker for very long :-)

On a serious note, get well, be well.

Best wishes for the both of you!

Good luck Steve, my best wishes to your wife.

Sending prayers for a speedy recovery yalls way

Steve,
holding thumbs and saying prayer for Susan.
I thought Portugal was nice and sunny now?

later budddy,

John

Portugal SHOULD be nice and sunny now but we arrived last year to the coldest winter since records began and the spring isn't much better....... I guess the good stuff should arrive eventually but so far, we haven't seen much of the clear blue skies and warm sunshine everyone keeps promising!

On the upside, the roads are great, potholes are almost as rare as rocking horse shit, traffic is virtually non existent and Government offices and officers are unbelievably empty, clean and effecient.

So far, the longest I've had to wait to get whatever I'm seeking is about 20 minutes and I've never been told something can't be done or had to go back a second time because some damn Af has forgotten his password, run out of paper or just not turned up for work........ Oh and I've never had to stand in a queue. It's a feckin revelation after having to deal with RSA bureaucracy!

Steve - Realy sorry to hear that Susan is not up to par and praying for a quick recovery. Sounds like your move will eventually come to be a good thing? Hang in there and let us know how things are progressing from time to time. Take care my friend and have a great day.

We have mixed feelings about the move and despite the wonderful effeciency & laid back attitudes here we still miss Africa & our friends there a helluva lot.

However, the most important thing is that Mama Susan seems to be on the road to recovery and that puts everything else in perspective for me.

best wishes to Susan for better health!

Prayers and Best Wishes for a full and speedy recovery.

Please send her our very best for a full and speedy recovery. Keep us posted Steve.

Best wishes to Susan & Steve. Don't know either but I enjoy Steve's positive posts.

Steve best wishes and a speddy recovery for your wife.

She's improving daily buddy but I have no idea when they'll send her home...... I'm hopin it'll be today but get the impression the docs want to keep her there for a while.

She must be getting better though because she's now reading one book a day!

I'll pass on your best wishes my friend!

I'd heard you'd stuffed up your ankle again but thought I'd leave you in peace until you're recovering but will try to call you in a week or so when you're on the road to recovery...... as for how you did it? - I'll look forward to hearing a REALLY funny story about it because I have no doubt there is one!

More generally,

Susan is now home but tired. She's on the road to recovery and we thank you all for your good wishes and kind words etc.
