Suzieq,
So sorry to hear of your present situation. But you will be glad that you can
care for your Mom in her last months/years. We all have to reach down deep in
ourselves to grasp all the strength we can muster at some times in our lives.
You are right not to freak out about your .01% number. My husband just had an
increase in his PCR the last time, too. We are hoping and praying for a better
number next time.
May God bless and keep you and strengthen you.
Joyce in IL
