Was in a hospital right around Christmas time once. Snuck out on Christmas Eve and was released on December 31st. It sucked for the most part, except for a choir of volunteers who came to sing us carols during the snowy, cold and dark evening. Brought a tear to my eye. I hope you get better!
I think Vermin Bane or something will be in order. Too bad you celebrate Christmas, if you didn't, like I do, you'll just miss lots of food and ice-cream. On a second thought, I shouldn't eat so much. Oh never mind me.
