Ahh the joy of the nasal-gastric tube! Been there done that - but thank God it was only once and I plan to never repeat it! I'm glad you're at least out of the hospital and I envy you that you can have such good spirits about it all! I would be throwing the pity-party pouting fit of the decade! Have some nice tea and some good chicken broth or something and get lots of rest. We're all glad your back - from Europe to start with - but mostly glad you're back from hospital - not the place for our Nelly to be! I'll be off the boards for the weekend since I'm travelling out of state, but hope to chat again next week. Hugs, Min
