Karla,
It was so good to hear from you, I hope you are eating the best you can,
good luck with your trip, and I hope it is the last surgery to give you
relief. I will probalby be going to go through mine soon, I cannot live
like this, you seem so brave, after all you have been through.
We have all been thinking of you and are glad to see you here!
