Surgery went well. Brought P home. She is well. More later.

Those of you in the substance abuse field or in recovery may know Father Martin. He was a funny man who educated many about alcoholism.  He told a joke in one of his lectures that went something like this: A man came upon a room that was filled with manure. A boy was shoveling and shoveling, and the…
