Michael,
Betty and I join all the othes in wishing you a speedy recovery and your place in the country sounds like just the ticket.
Ironically, I had found myself wondering while commuting to work how you were enduring that schedule you had going on while in Iceland. I was starting to grow very envious of your energy, only then to hear (or read) of your difficulties. Maybe you are just a mortal human after all.
Take care, rest well, and send our thanks to Chris for looking after you. He's probably a bit frazzeled too after trying to keep up with you. Sometimes I think we all try to do too much in pursuit of our images.
