Thanks so much guys!
Markus is doing a lot better today. He still has a really nasty cough, but his fever is all gone. He's beginning to pack for his trip home. I can't wait to see him again. Only 4 more nights!

Northcoast - Sorry to hear you had to deal with Bronchitis too. It really took a toll on Markus, In the 10 years we've been together.. I've never seen him in such a bad shape. Glad to hear your recovered. Everyone has been telling me that it takes a number of weeks to get fully back on your feet again.

Maryann- You're right, I'm sure getting back into his own bed will speed up his recovery.
