Thank you Lynda.
Most people call me Mandii :)
I have looked over at the quilt and have begun reading some of the
stories.
I too hope you have a good day. Here in Australia it is 2:30am and the
pain has kept me awake tonight. I hope to try and get some sleep soon
though before my eyes fall out of my head.
Your right, there is no better group to share your pain with, than one
who understands that pain so well.
After reading stories of people having so many problems with doctors I
am going to give mine a big hug today when I see him.
I have experienced the terror of being in pain with adhesions and trying
to get assistance from disbelieving medical staff to no avail also and I
guess I should thank and appreciate my doctor so much for being as
compassionate and understanding as he is.
Take Care,
Mandii
