Tomiboy,
Thanks for the well wishes. Her recovery has been anything but quick, but she just managed to go to her Monday clinic without being hospitalized. It's been quite a trial for her and us, but the key is that she's alive. We have been blessed that we can be her caretakers during recovery, I had quite a bit of sick leave available and my wife's employer has been willing to allow her unpaid time off. She'll be staying with us for the next couple of months and can hopefully move back to her apartment after that. I just glanced at the date and she is exactly 2 months since surgery.
On an airgun related note, a few months back I had loaned the P15 in .22 to a friend of mine to experiment with while I was gone and it was still holding air, so at least the seals are still hanging in there. I'll be slowly getting my head back into the world of air and I have a few projects that will be rather unique when I get around to them.
Mark
