Just a quick hi to everyone, to let you all know that things are going well here. I really like my doctor and everyone in the clinic, and we're all over our jet lag (still haven't gotten used to German keyboards though!). Gonna tour the cathedral tomorrow, I think, and we're going to Amsterdam over the weekend.

Thanks for all your good wishes! I don't have enough time to return every pm and email, but I thank you for all of them, they mean a lot to me :)

    ...so you are finally here in the Kraut's land.

    oh do I hope and wish that you find what you need and look for.

    and hey hey, tellme if the Germans do not treat you fine,
    then I go out and yell at them all !!!

    and p.s. now I am really pissed that I can't make it up there,
    from down south here,
    but even so I want you to be fine, I also hope there might be another chance to hug you one fine day...

    take care and enjoy
    especially beautiful Holland!

    lots of love is sent your way,
    just 500 km up up up,
    so close and still far away. :(
    there is no way to peace, peace is the way!

    i just got off the phone with Laura a while ago. she sounded great. and in a really good and positive spirit. which makes me happy. she talked a lot about her fun plans over the next few days when she is not at the clinic. cathedral, amsterdam, some kind of boat tour, etc.

    she also mentioned that she will have some time on friday morning to hit the internet again. so leave your thoughts for her here. :)

    huggies Laura.

    P.S. Go Tribe!
    I miss you hippiemom.

    Great news! Thanks for the update.

    Her absence from the boards is palpable. She is always a measured voice of reason. I'm looking forward to seeing her post on Monday.

    I am now drinking a toast to her health and sending positive thoughts her way.
