ok i don't know how i missed this thread ..ive been lax on posting and maybe that is it.... not sure .... but girl ..... gg on handling this as you have .....this is probably the worst part of it that u are going through ...hope some of the pain is clearing for you by now... keep hanging in there... you have shown such strength dealing with this ...i hope my absence in posting has not caused you to think i don't care ... i so do ..... so many years ago I helped my mother in law through hers ... having another with you at doctor appointments is so crutial ... it allows you to just feel and deal with it without also having to deal with remembering all the instructions and details too.

I liked your positive attitrude with going for the extra size ...pump it up baby ..always good ..why settle when its there for the asking ...

i dont know how long it took me to read this whole thread . stoppping to reread to laugh and to cry.. hugs and kissess

i too want to say kudos to Tony .. not sure if i played against him at all? for I hadnt heard of this till now and always just assumed it was you no worse for wear sitting across from me on the table ..hope i never said anything to make you feel uncared for during these past weeks

as for family drawing near ..don't be too hard on them ...loooking back I'm sure you too can recall indifference dealing with their lives too...we are all so busy and life seems to take its toll on our free time... Reading of your families visits warmed my heart as it also painfully brought up my estrangement to my father.... the rallying of your employers and coworkers was a great story also ..... please let others help when they ask ...it really does help them as much as it will help you.

well ok I guess that is it...I look forward to hearing about your recovery.. I too send best wishes for a safe, continued successfull, painlessening path to your complete recovery.

again except my apologies for missing this
