On the mend! Only place to go is up!

I was in the clinic yesterday when I read your post, and same spouse with cataract surgery yesterday had a tooth yanked a couple of weeks ago (could have gone with the root canal, but the dentist said it might have to be done again later-sorry to break that to your wife!)

Anyway, did they talk to you about aspirin therapy? I take a whole one a day, my doc said "the stroke guys" like a whole one, the "heart guys" say 1/2.

I look forward to seeing you here again. We need all the good Wisconsinites we can get!
