i must've been sending out signals when i posted mentioning the med student i really liked - out of nowhere i bumped into her today - shed gotten an offer to intern here and is finishing up her second year, she was impressed with how much movement i have in my arm, that i could stand, and mostly that i've been living alone for 20 months since when she first saw me they thought id be sent to a snf possibly forever - was very cool seeing her, ok - we now return to our regularly scheduled program, or will when i've the energy to continue, lol
