She had her left and right side separated in Jan of last year. She started having seizures again last week. It was a tough couple of days, but it looks like she will be ok. 3 hours in nothing compared to her last 12.5 hour with 18 doctors and nurses..

Oh boy, I hope your daughter and SIL have good insurance.

She's a warrior!

I'm sure they'll treat the problem for good this time.

Her medical bills for this last year have been just over 2.5 million dollars.

She was actually named Chicago Children's Hospital case of the year.

Now she is going for back to back..

When my oldest daughter was born 5 weeks premature (wife had preeclampsia), both almost died on the delivery table. The kid spent her first 4-5 days in the NICU. We paid nothing.

Wife was diagnosed with breast cancer a few years ago (and beat it, yeah!). Had to have numerous biopsies, mammograms, chest reconstructive surgery and a round of radiation. We spent a ton on parking, but that was the only thing we paid.

I love my American friends, but damn, fix your healthcare system.

My granddaughter will have a 3 hour brain surgery tomorrow. So, think good thoughts for her as she is only 18 months old.

Thanks in advance.

Again you're all going through this big test...

Best of luck to her!!!

Does that mean Saturday night's Leafs game would be at 6:30 pm?

Not sure what anyone thought Andy should have done differently on the first goal. Looks like someone called a team meeting at the goal post.

In Nfld. perhaps.

Anyone got a valid reason as to why it's taken us 15 years to figure out that with better defence we're a really good hockey team?

The loudmouth part of any fanbase always prefer goalscorers, and imho it might get under the brass' skin...

Avoid these sh!t brands.

Get a Samsung/Sony/LG - Bestbuy usually has best prices but now likely isn't the best time to buy.

You can have a 70+ inch Samsung for less than $1,000 if you find the right deal.

Hisense and TCL are not poop brands at all. In a lot of cases they are better then Samsung equivelent TVs, but not the higher end ones.

Buy a good name brand TV with a high refresh rate. You'll be happy.

(1) Poorly positioned after lockout
(2) Poorly managed after lockout
(3) Evolving role had left poor prospect pool.

. . .there's something funny in that is the definition of how you play good defense in hockey. For those of us older than 25, defense was for big bodies, and guys who could bang, cross-check and pin and outmuscle anything that came within grabbing distance - and if you could hook it with your stick and pull it within grabbing distance, you could pin and cross-check what you'd hauled in. Mobility was for defensemen who were out of position! Those were the type of defensemen who ate Nikolai Borschevsky's spleen as a snack!

It's the most evolved position, I find. Now mobility is the key. We've moved more towards stick checks, positional intelligence and gap control as a way to better define the position. The guys who bang and pin have their uses, but typically as a third pairing option. I think last year that Dubas and co went too far in their puck moving mentality and really didn't give enough thought on who was going to get the puck from someone else.
