Re: Hospital AGAIN! But you'll never guess why!

Denise,
I am thinking about you and praying for a great result for your back. I understand the crazy pain of a disk crashing down on a nerve. Worst pain I ever experienced in my life...and us BC survivors have been through our share of pain. Keep the faith...your such a strong lady and have your beautiful family to pull you through this. As you are recovering from your surgery...go get em! Pursue all avenues for a resolution to this human resource nightmare you are experiencing. Love and hugs to you and your family as you once again face this challenge.
