GM Tom,

Good to read that all is reasonably OK. I think that second hand smoke
isn't as dangerous as asbestos fibers.
If it had been smoking you'd probably have lung cancer. OTOH asbestos
dust can also cause the same problem.

Well, that's maybe better than the final I suppose.
I'm suffering from the after-effects from sending me home too early from
the hospital before I was ready to manage myself. First night at home I
fell upon my newly operated hip after I broke the neck of the femur on
jan. 2nd 2017.
The next day I was back in the same hospital bed that I just left and
wasn't allowed to move around with a rollator and crutches for a week
as I did B4 being sent home.
I have had to decrease the length of my 'scandinavian pole' walks from
10km to 5.6km. Now I do the walk in the same time I did on 10km before.
The muscles that died the second week in the hospital aren't recreated
at our age.
Have a nice day,
Holger
