  1. We'll all be thinking of you. Take care of yourself, Matt, and happy typing. I'm sure you'll be memorable to the folks at the clinic. :-)

  2. We're all pulling for you and wish you good health. I would be interested to see what you write there. I would probably take my "Olivetti" too - the Underwood 319.

  3. Well, Matt, if anyone can get over this, it's you. You have been showing us all a lot of determination in the short time we've known you. We all are wishing you the best, and we can't wait to see what typing you turn out in a week of isolation. Good Luck, Man.

  5. Matt, I'm so sorry you have had to deal with this. You are showing great courage by wanting to fix this now and tell us about it. I know you can do it. I'll miss talking to you next week but I'll be thinking about you. I'm sure you'll be typing away in there. Take care.

  6. I'm rooting for you as well. I think it takes a person with a lot of character to admit something like this openly AND then do something about it. I know you can get through it!

  12. Good luck, Matt! Take care of yourself. As odd as this sounds--enjoy it. Take the time to focus on you, to learn what you really need and how to give it to yourself. It'll make you stronger in the end. I know you can succeed.

  15. We're all rooting for you, Matt. And we'll look forward to your writing your view from the other side which we know will be a vantage point of better health and energy. Think of all these comments as lights on a huge map that shows all your typing friends!
    Good choice to bring the Lettera 32; the typewriter gets to be with you through this on your journeys together.

  18. I know I'm late to the party on this one, but let me chime in now, too.
    Hope to hear from you soon - there's a Matt-shaped hole in the typosphere.
    Your determination is evident, and I wish you all the best in a full recovery and a healthy future.

  19. Okay... a month later. I'm with Duffy, saying there's a Matt-shaped hole in the typosphere. We're all concerned, and not asking for much more than a note saying you are doing well. Perhaps you are too busy turning your experiences into a novel...
