Just got home a bit ago from Philly.. over 600 miles in two days..we are all pretty tired and very happy to be home...I had to write....

Dr. Schwartzman is AMAZING!!!! He is just an incredibly knowledgeable..world renown Neurologist..I am now honored to be one of his patients... Sadly I want to share with you that I did not get favorable results...He has diagnosised me with "whole body" RSD and some internal organ involvement... it's the news we didn't want to get..but I am okay..I am not scared and still feel very blessed... We have to fight for the insurance company to come on board in order to proceed which he recommends a 5 day inpatient coma ..sadly, I will have to remain at Drexel in the ICU unit for some time...it's a bunch to digest .. you are all aware of this feeling I am sure... still coming down from all of this ....it may take a little time to sink in...RSD is a !!!

I have to try and get to sleep shortly... I just want to say how much I appreciate your support and that I think the world of each of you!!!!

Love, Kathy
