Hey Joyce
Wow!  You have really been through the mill. So happy you made it through. You 
and I are about the same age and that it the reason I never pushed for surgery. 
Sounds like you are well on the way to recovery.  
I would have it done if I could get up the nerve. I have been in the hospital 
but no doctor ever pushed for surgery.  
We are warriors and MArty is our faithful leader so let's just keep fighting a 
good battle. 
Do you have to go to the dr much Marty?
I go every three months to Moffitt and a couple month to my PCd.  
I pray Joyce that all will be alright. Are you bed ridden ?
Keep fighting. 
My Motto:
Faith and Pills
With Love
