Kitty, I am so sorry for your pain anD anguish.. I hear you and
understand. It sometimes seems like the whole world is passing
me by and just forgeting I'm here.

I try to be a squeaky wheel, by joining FB to keep up with Family
and E-mail lots of them, every day.. that helps, but it still seems
that I'm the last to know, about everything that's happening.

Don't forget to take care of you, keep up with your PT/OT and
SQUEEEEEEK!!

I wish you well and hope you'll feel better and stronger soon.

KL - I am glad to see you back here. I am sorry that your doc is away. Is no one "covering" for him? When you do see him- please ask about what to do if a serious situation comes up again. I was worried w you about ON.

I don't have children so I can only imagine how disappointing it is to not feel they are there for you. Maybe you could work out something w one of them or a friend. Set a timer and you talk for 10 or 20 minutes- whatever you agree on. Then the other person talks for her 20 minutes. There used to be something that might have been called Co-therapy based on this.

Wish I could help more,
ANN
