[Dreamboat] off topic

Hi Mongers....
Sorry to go off topic, but it's been a real rough week.  My father is in the 
hospital - ICU - with an infection called Sepsis.  The source is the 
epidural he had two weeks ago.  He's resting well and the antibiotics are 
working, but he'll be on them for months to come.  He's in good spirits and 
most likely be moved from the ICU to a private room either tomorrow or 
Monday.  We're hoping he'll be home in time for Thanksgiving.

In a strange irony, this is the very infection my mother had three years 
ago.  In my mother's case, it laid dormant for two years and then abscessed, 
leaving her with severe paralysis.  It probably should of killed her but 
she's a fighter and that's why she's still alive today.  Dad is her primary 
care giver since she is very dependent on others because of her limits of 
motion.  My sister and I are trying to watch her, but it's been difficult.  
I have a crazy work schedule and she's still recovering from abdominal 
surgery 5 weeks ago.

If you could keep us in your prayers, good thoughts and send some positive 
vibes this way - it will be appreciated!  Thanks in advance!

Going back to normal programming....thanks for the link for the Sweden 
concert!!  I'm going to try to listen from work today!
