Jeanie,
I am doing very well since I got home from the double surgery and dealing with
the blood clots. I am not bedridden. I get around pretty well but have
trouble with my knees.
We truly are warriors. And Marty is our cheerleader!
I wish you all the best.
God bless and keep you.
Joyce in Southern Illinois
