You went and did it again MaryAnn. The tears are flowing again...I can't see to type. You just AMAZE me...a REAL INSPIRATION and then some. I hope you know how much you help so many of us women fighting this battle. I can't tell you how happy I am for you. You go girl!!!!!

I know you have much ahead of you still...but you are one tough cookie. Some of the worse has to be just being stuck in the hospital. Ugh! I just hate that...everyone wants to be home. But you WILL get there. This I know! I am so glad you get to have a break and go home for a month..that will be so nice for you and your family. Gives you time to re-group.

Thanks so much for keeping us updated. I was SO HAPPY to read your post. Made my day. There are just no words to express just how excited I am for you. Your just awesome...nothing slows you down or gets in your way. I wonder if your doctor has a better idea now of who he is dealing with. lol I bet you are blowing his mind by now.

I will be looking forward to your post. I am sending you warm & healing thoughts, and saying so many prayers for you.

Hang in there.
