    Hey Don...

    Great to hear from you again! I know about those lower back problems... I've got T-12 to L-1 compression as well and it's got me so I can barely walk 50 yards without bending over in pain.

    Hope you get better soon from all of these ailments. Happy Holidays to you & your family. [​IMG]

    OUCH!!!! :eek: :( What happened ???? I was wondering where you were. Speaking as a person who has major back problems from several injuries, I know how it feels. You have my complete sympathies!

    Hope we'll be hearing from you regularly very soon!

    Take care!

    ;)

    Holy Guacamole! Don!
    Good to hear from you!
    Don't tell me...let me guess.
    You caught the staph and celulitis while in the hospital.
    Similar situation happened to me. Then they discharge you, they will have the nerve to hand you a prescription for Vancomicin that will cost you hundreds of dollars for an infection you caught while under their care. [​IMG]
    Hope the Boss 302 is being cared for well!
    Oh...and you too Don... :D
    Get well! [​IMG]

    If you don't mind me asking, what happened?

    Don:

    I hope you will be well enough to make the Tucson show in February.

    It was good to meet you last year when you were laid up here in Albuquerque.

    I was thinking a few days back that we hadn't heard from Don Brown in some time. Glad to hear you are recovering well, Don.

    Get well soon and look forward to seeing more of your posts in the near future.

    Welcome aboard George and Deb!
