TF cannot do multi-line matching.  If you are really concerned about the extra 
cast, then use alarms.  At the 'warm' trigger, do a repeat call with a 2 
second time or something, storing the pid.  When the 'healed' message pops
up, kill the alarm.  You'll have to play with the delays to fine tune them
for best results, but it shouldn't be too much slower.  It will save you
mana if nothing else.
