    Here, in this forum, I have found my sweet eternal love, my beautiful Phil.. :

    "You are my sunshine", he used to sing to me... "you make me happy, when skies are grey" I still answer him.
    Rest in Peace, my brave Batman and take care of your weggies from heaven, until we meet again.

    Thanks so much everyone for your prayers and words of encouragement.

    Looks like I will be in here for the long haul. That could be another month or til Spring, who knows for sure. At least I am in the best place possible. When God decides it is time to go home then I will go home.

    I'm so sorry to hear you won't be out soon. That's a long time to spend in a hospital room. I hope you are able to get out and about a little bit. My best wishes and prayers for you and Alysia.

    I'm sorry to hear you are being held over Phil. If it helps at all I have actual fond memories of some of my hospital stays. Even in the midst of pain and fear I was able to find moments that I still remember fondly.
    I know it sounds a little whacky. One example was when I was extremely ill and could not get out of bed and walk for a very long time. I remember vividly the first time I was able to get up and make my way to the shower and take a shower. Just a simple shower. It was pure heaven.
    I hope you find as much to enjoy as you can in your time there- and then get the hell out. You don't belong there. We all want you to go home.

    Phil...dude hoping for a speedy recovery and once you are back on your feet my friend you WILL need to come down to South Florida. I will definitely feed you rice, beans, pork, yucca and bread and top it off with flan!

    I'm sorry to hear you may be in the hospital longer. At least you have good company! Keeping you in my positive thoughts and prayers that you get to leave sooner than later.

    Are you feeling better at all? I hope you are not in a lot of pain, but by the looks of the pics you posted I'm sure you must be at quite a discomfort
