Eddie . . . as Mac stated earlier in the post prayers were with you since you left the forum and of course will remain with you, maybe now just a bit more intense.

My prediction is that with the aid of that crazy sense of humor of yours you are going to make a pretty solid recovery.

Regarding your give them a hug advice, it is so true. My family members always make it a point to tell loved ones and close friends we love them at the end of every visit and/or phone call because as you stated, we never know.

Get well soon and both figuratively and literally, welcome back.

Later,
