Come on, show us, where'd you get it" they say.<BR/><BR/>The bloody bat hemms and hawws and waives them away but they're persistent, so finally he says, "Alright. You wanna know, follow me."<BR/><BR/>Over pastures and around bridges and through meadows they go until finally he says, "Okay. You see that tree over there?"<BR/><BR/>And his followers exclaim "Yes! Yes! There? What then?"<BR/><BR/>And the bloody bat says, "Good. 'Cause I didn't"...<BR/><BR/>I don't know about smarter, but I know I used laughter as my yardstick as to how close I was to the realm of the unwell; as long as I could still giggle over a vampire bat smacking his head on a tree, I knew I was still on the right side of "nuts"...<BR/><BR/>We're pullin' for you both!<BR/><BR/><BR/>KariAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29916680.post-1154303388984538602006-07-30T16:49:00.000-07:002006-07-30T16:49:00.000-07:00You are so lucky to be staing in the PICU, Emma is...You are so lucky to be staing in the PICU, Emma is always shuffled to the floor as soon as possible (they are always needing beds) here.

I agree with the need to leave the building at times, so it is a good thing. Mostly, I'm glad to read that Jack is improving. I hope to see a photo of his smile soon.<BR/><BR/>- bettyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
