LOLOLOLOLOLOL. There is just something EXTRA humiliating when you make a fool of yourself in another country! I'd forgotten the ice situation in Germany! Hey, I do hear that massages come with their medical care. That right? What city will you be in? Mary

Like drinking a warm alka seltzer everywhere you go...so Mary Pomroy and I had to ask for ''WASSAR from Faucette..or actually go point it out to whomever it was we were trying to get water from!!

myself too! When I walked into the cafateria, the food service person already knew what this lady wanted, and when I held up a BIG pot for ice, she smiled knowingly and I could see by her expression she knew she was looking at one smart American..probably was thinking that we sure are smart people, very ingenius!! >I walked over to the metal counter, head held high, the room was filled

She ran one way, I the other, it sounded like someone shot a gun through the room as that pot was meatl and was sitting on a metal counter as well.., everyone everywhere was standing up looking our way!! She and I slowly walked over to that pot and with our heads all but fused together, we peered inside to find a mess of glass and ice...then we started to laugh so hard, and people came over to look in that STUPID hot coffee pot! No one told me it had just been used for hot water upstairs and was still hot!!! And maybe they did, but I don't understand German!! >

as planned, shall we say,...so when I returned here to Marinette, I called our hospital, and they have shipped to Duisburg Medical Klinikum a case of large water and ice cube containers for the bedsides of all our IAS members from now on!!!! I know where the ice is..and now I have the buckets to get it too!! Lynne ask Dr. Korell for one as he has them in his office. But please leave it there for the next ones...even though there is a case of them...better we leave them each time as well!! >
