Hi Gary, Thanks for being so understanding regarding Franks point of view. You are so right...anything that makes the blood boil and takes our minds off of the darn neuropathic pain is worth pursuing. Politics does not do anything for me except get me upset, so I tend to avoid it. I take in only enough of the media blitz in order to keep up with the beliefs of our candidates. If that is possible. Religion is another thing...as long as no one is promoting a certain church affiliation, I see no reason why we cannot use references to our higher power. I, for one, can use all of the prayers I can get and I happen to believe in the Bible and Jesus as my Savior. What is wrong with a "Bless You" when signing off of an email? I would like to know how many of you are offended by something like that? Even I do not think this forum is to be used to promote religious beliefs. I do not care for long poems about anything other than TM. I delete most of the jokes and wouldn't mind if people would take me off of their list of mailings like that. I am interested in each persons welfare. How are you feeling? Are you in pain? What medication work for you? May I pray for you? "I'll be thinking of you" means the same thing as "I'll pray for you" so if that sounds less offensive to you that's what I'll say. Or, I can just keep my mouth shut and pray for you on my own without mentioning it to anyone. But, as far as I'm concerned...I'll take all of the Prayers I can get. When I was alone all of those weeks in the hospital, hearing from so many of you saying you were praying for my recovery was so comforting. I thank each and every one of you who stood by my side.

That was no outburst. For an outburst you USE ALL CAPS LIKE THIS PLUS SEVERAL EXCLAMATION MARKS!!!!!! You're right, getting involved in something requiring passion gets one's mind off these crazy TM discomforts and pains. We'll just try to refrain from getting sidetracked from TM subjects. Take care.
