BTW, how is Mr. mama_bear? I have a friend who is going on his 6th week of misery with the creepy crud

He's doing okay now. Finally went back to the doctor because he just wasn't getting better. Come to find out, some of his problem is that he quit smoking 'cold turkey' on Valentine's Day - no patch, no gum, no nuthin', and doctor says that nicotine withdrawal makes many people feel physically ill, like they have the flu. So that, combined with the allergic reactions to the pollens in the air and the bronchitis that he was trying to get over, hit him pretty hard.

But he is doing much better now. I will tell him that you asked about him. He will appreciate that. :-)

I am still getting over something that I've had for two months. I think it turned into pneumonia. I didn't really realize I was that sick until I started getting better. I hope he feels better soon.

wow.. never heard that before re: tobacco withdrawal/complications. I have several friends & family members who have stopped smoking in past couple months.. with varying levels of success.

Say hello for me.

My Josy could use some of those "doggie be good" lessons.
