Also, because of being a nurse, I thought heart attack. <br />I do love how you brought out different unique thoughts that can mean more than one thing. I also see some good humor in this one. <br />Gosh, how do you come up with these ideas; just fantastic. <br />Sending loving thoughts and hugs your way dear friend! I do hope you are doing well.
