National Hospital Week

I spent last week becoming far more familiar with the Durham VA Medical Center than I ever wanted to be. On 5 May my father underwent a triple bypass, and I was there every day as he began the road to recovery. I was able to observe the stellar care the medical staff there gives to the brave women and men who have served our country. Everyone I encountered was pleasant and professional, and I thanked them over and over for everything they did for my father and me.

11-17 May is National Hospital Week. No one I know wants to go into the hospital, but if we go, the hard-working staff is what makes the stay better than it would otherwise be. If you or someone you love is or has recently been in the hospital, take the time to let the staff know you appreciate their dedication.

That is a really nice shot. I love the pink around the edges of the cloud.

And I know you didn't mean it to be funny, but I've gotta tell you, my crazy hypochondriac aunt would PAY to go in the hospital.
