Re: Hospital AGAIN! But you'll never guess why!

Oh Denise - such rotten luck! I am glad you are back home and that things are moving in regard to your back. Hope the pain doesn't return in full force, that your HR person gets her comeuppance and that you can swap the hot dogs for fillet steak in the near future.
Best wishes.... Pam
