How Wonderful to have you!
You'll find so many caring wonderful people here!
I'm glad your trial implant proved positive for you! Yes, the 'red tape' is crazy and it seems it just drags on and on.......

Regarding your question about an ID bracelet - yes! It would be a VERY good idea to get one! As a matter of fact, we were recently discussing this issue...... here is the thread with the details of this discussion...just click here
