Hi Dave,
Yep, they were a great ride. I read that your Tongs pulled out with 45lbs.
I had one side pull out of the righ side, which left the left side of my head
with 30lbs hanging from it. That was a real fun time with me screaming (could
hardly make a sound but they heard me) to get a nurse.
With Love,

Hi Dan,
Were you on a Stryker Frame? I was on one 3 months getting turned every two
hours. I still have the Tongs that were in my head turning that time. They
somehow slipped into my wife's purse after they took them out of my head.
Speaking of Stryker Frames makes me feel strange. My 1st Grandson was born
in 1993 at Borgess Hospital in Kalamazoo, MI. That is where Dr. Stryker got
permission in 1939-40 to work in the basement to perfected his turning frame
and other inventions. Funny how life curls around!
