Default Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?

Just had a call, they took her off the ventilator 3 hours ago. and she is now breathing for herself and moved onto High Dependancy Unit. No further blood loss. They even said she will be home in a few days.

Yesterday As a practicing catholic she was given the last rites and I was told she may not make it through the night, Now off to the smile thread.

God, Tim, what the hell you must be going through I cannot begin to imagine. My very best wishes to you both and hopefully Lynne will be back home on familiar ground very soon.

Small beans, but I ordered 4m each of 8g and 12g silicone wire in red and black from Hobby King. I assumed I'd get 4 x 4m lengths of wire, but nope- delivered today was 16 x 1m lengths

Probably has poor eyesight and doesn't realise it. Slow growing cataracts. All drivers should have regular eye checks.

Sometimes electric cars do that when running out of battery power............as the driver tries to get home before battery croaks, The battery is a rubber bucket so you never really sure how much is in there.
