The Struggle Has Ended

Kidnapped
I was hanging in there yesterday, not doing too bad, albeit with concern about the continuing diarrhea. My doctor was concerned about dehydration but not quite enough to send me to the hospital. Then at 10pm, I developed a fever. My doctor (actually the doctor on call for Hoff) said to go right away to the ER. How is it that these things always seem to happen late at night! Mom took me. Neither of us had much sleep through all the night's activity.
Long story short, they kidnapped me and I am currently being held hostage at Richardson Medical Center in Room 507. My captors tell me I will probably be here until Thursday. Quite frustrating - this is my "rest" week before round six on Monday. They gave me a weak excuse for this captivity ... something about possible infection. However, my captors are treating me well. The fluids they are pumping into me for dehydration are making me feel much better.
Still, if this gets out of hand, I may ask some of you to organize a rescue mission. You could wear camos and helmets with green infrared cameras and carry me down the staircase to make it look heroic.

Give the signal and I'll be there quicker than you can say "Blackhawk Down." Activate the homing device we had implanted under your left (ahem) on the last trip to MDACC and I'll be able to dispatch the Rapid Recovery Force with pinpoint precision.
I have a reconnaissance sortie scheduled for this afternoon. I'll disguise your SERE (Survival, Evasion, Resistance, Escape) kit as a Neal Stephenson novel.
Scottie, beam me up.
Make that a Tom Clancy novel, Mark—we don’t want to tip off the crypto-moles at the NSA.

Greg, here's a plan just show them and expired HMO card and you'll be out of there faster than you can say sponge bath! Keep smiling God loves it. Vince Corvino & family
Greg,
You never have a bad day, always a funny story. I think you should be a writer after you finish all this chemo. Hang in there.
Greg,
I know how to organize one of these missions. Just give me the word.

I'm sorry to hear about your infection. I'm sure that there is a purpose for it. We just have to wait to find out. Please know that I am praying for you and Christine. PTL for his sovereignty!
I'm not sure your rescue will play on Fox. You are not as attractive as Jessie Lynch.
