@Kitty S. Lillian Thanks, got 'em. I really need to get in the habit of running posts through Grammarly, but as the app strips formatting out I have to spend some time re-doing things...
@ Everyone else reading along: There may be a disruption in posting; A couple of years ago I had to have the
laminae of several vertebrae removed (C4-C7) to give me use of my left arms and legs back (also, to keep me breathing). Last December an MRI showed the same problem occurring in my lower back (L4-S1). I'm walking like I was walking two years ago. I'll keep the thing going for as long as I can, but there may be a two week period where I'll be absent.
Fortunately, all working stories are on a USB drive, so I can work on them on my laptop. I should be able to comment from the hospital via my tablet.
