I strongly second
TrojanHorse's thoughts below. Same as TH, I would want something obvious so I'd know if someone I cared about/knew was hurt. Buried in the thread as it could be, you could totally miss who was sick. This is not I cut my finger stuff, but larger "get wells" going out. More importantly, people aren't going to keep opening this thread up when someone posts to it, as they will assume it's the same person receiving wishes, and quickly get tired of seeing get well wishes (or assume those are get well wishes) and thereby miss that someone they cared about was ill. I would guess that
SS255 whose post I also included below wouldn't even think that more than 1 FT'er is included in this speedy recovery thread and therefore is likely unaware that there is more than 1 FT'er in the hospital, ill, undergoing surgery, etc at this time.

I want to see the Get well name (FT Name I mean) in the thread title.. you never know when it might be someone in the FT community a little closer to you than others and you may not know.. this thread I may not open till I have a little more free time.. personally I will start a new thread if I (knock on wood that I don't) ever have to start one of these threads..
