Thanks for your wonderful prayers

I have no doubt that your prayers helped. My PETSCAN and CT scanned show very little changes in my ribs and liver (i.e. still there, but remaining stable).

Tracy,

Once the shock has passed and you feel like you can once again breathe, we'd love to hear about your husband. His likes, dislikes, etc. Share when you can.
