Hi, Ginnie,
So sorrry to hear of all these troubles, and the painful therapy.
I am glad there is a rainbow at the end of the road, of sorts... your rasta fella waiting for you in the islands.

And maybe not so much at the end of the road. Maybe he could visit, in between? A visitor (non-immigrant) visa shouldn't be a problem, provided he does not "express intent to immigrate" to a US official.
Anyway I am sending good thoughts for your complete recovery, with full use of arm and hand for beaded frogs and mosaic universes and anything else you might dream up to sculpt.
