                         THANKING SENATOR PAUL

  Mr. REID. Mr. President, just as an aside, most everybody knows at 
this point that on New Year's Day I fell and hurt myself and injured my 
right eye.
  During this period of time, the Presiding Officer--who by the way is 
a medical doctor, an ophthalmologist--has been so kind and thoughtful 
and considerate in visiting with me, giving me encouragement and some 
expert advice as to what he has seen in the past and given me hope for 
better sight out of my right eye. I appreciate it very much.
  I want the people of Kentucky to know how thoughtful and considerate 
and kind the Presiding Officer has been to me over these past few 
months.

                          ____________________
