The future Baron and I are off to visit Dymphna in the hospital. I have printed and will take with me all the good wishes that readers have left in the comments or sent by email.
Please behave yourselves while I am away. Suggested topic of discussion: the upcoming runoff election in Zimbabwe.
[nothing else here]
At the siege of Vienna in 1683 Islam seemed poised to overrun Christian Europe.
We are in a new phase of a very old war.

Journey well, Baron.
Give your good lady our kindest wishes.
As humor is such good medicine, might I offer some biting satire?
"From the Maritimes to the Yukon, the Great White North was once a lawless land where cruel and offensive opinions roamed free - until one man stood up and brought them to justice. One mighty masked man, clad in the scarlet breechcoat of the Royal Canadian Mounted Human Rights Police, astride a golden disabled lesbian steed, with his faithful transgender Indian scout at his side. Together they rode from Yellowknife to St. John's, keeping Canadians safe from the spectre of multicultural insensitivity.
The Canadian Broadcast Corporation invites you to return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear as we tell the tales of that legendary singing Human Rights Mountie. It's time for excitement - it's time for lawsuits - It's time for... Warman of the Mounted!"

Dear Baron , I do hope that your good lady improves soon , I know that this is a difficult condition . May God bless you all .
Take care, Baron. Best of luck!
I don't know what Dymphna has but I desire she can overcome her illness. Quickly, that is!
By the way.
I came here to deliver a recent news that just passed here on the Mass Media in Portugal, though without great development (as usual).
The thing is: After the European Cup game Croatia vs Turkey and after the Turks have wom (isn't the world unfair?) there have been many fights among Croats and Turk both in Switzerland as in
BOSNIA! THAT IS! CROATS ARE REVOLTING IN BOSNIA!!!
MAYBE IT IS TIME FOR CROATS STOP LOOKING DOWN TO SERBS AND EXPELL THE BOSNIAKS FROM THE SERB-CROATIAN LANDS!!!
I don't know what really happened yet but a death was reported.
Only 40% of Bosnia is muslim, 15% of Bosnia is Croat. The Croats live under muslim control, maybe they are tired of it.
To that region of the world, I make mine the words of Kalashnikov as radical as it seems.
I had no idea that your wife would be spending overnight time in the hospital...
As another PTSD sufferer, I send her my best wishes. It is almost impossible to recover from the illness but, possible to control.
Life is not fair. So, we take what we are given and make the most of it.I certainly hope she is getting good medical care.
Please have her email me if she would like to talk...
All my best,
Babs
