Hi Cotty All the best to Stefan and you - I trust none of you got too rattled by the experience. I hope it make Christmas at home with your family all the more special. Simon
PS - I had to look up what Rummikub was - is it all the craze in England? -----Original Message----- From: Cotty [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 20 December 2005 7:19 PM To: pentax list Subject: Medical Interlude Hi team, Some of you have met my lad Stefan, so thought you would like to know that he was rushed into hospital yesterday with suspected appendicitis. He had an uncomfortable night under observation and this morning it's looking more and more like just a severe abdominal infection. You know when you get swollen glands in your neck with a cold sometimes? Well apparently the ones in your belly/groin can do the same and cause acute pain similar to appendicitis. Fortunately, his pain has not progressed to the excruciating levels that indicates appendicitis, so with a bit of luck he might be out this evening. I'm sat at the bedside while Alma and Stef play Rummikub and what to do but peruse the couple of hundred emails from the list !
