Default Spratt Report 3

Gale Johnson visited Charlie today and reports he is out of the ICU and in a
regular room. He had his last dialysis to balance some chemistry and he
hopes to be home Monday or Tuesday.

The donor had a history of cocaine addiction and although the doctors
assured him this had no affect on the organ Charlie will probably have his
own take on that.

He's eager to hit the road by early summer.

Can't wait to hear Charlie's take on that!

When Charlie recommends that you get high and stay high, there might
now be some confusion as to the means of getting high?

So perfectly Charlie! Fodder for his next book (which the National
Soaring Museum looks forward to publishing).

God bless the donor. He gave all that he had, and all that he was ever
gonna get.

Before Charlie had the transplant, he talked with a nice Carolina
drawl, but now that he has the coke kidney, will he be able to talk as
fast as a New Yorker, or perhaps as fast as Karl?
Will we never again hear Charlie utter, “things go better with Coke?”
Now that he is on the mend, will he ever get any slack regarding the
donor source? Doubtful.

Glad to hear Charlie is on the mend.

Plan to celebrate by re-reading "See ya' at the airport!"

And, checking that my drivers' licence department
and next of kin know that, when the situation arrives,
I'm a donor.
