Note from Kathy S. In Tokyo
Thanks for posting the update on Kathy. I am so happy she made it through surgery okay. Hopefully she will have a good recovery from surgery and be off to the next thing on her medical agenda. Hopefully the Tykerb she has been waiting for will be approved in Japan by summer. She is a fighter !!!!!!!!!!!!
