HI ANGIE,
THIS IS A SHORT BUT SUPPORTIVE MESSAGE FROM DEBBIE HENZE, I ACCIDENTLY
MESSED UP MARLENE'S LETTER BY PUTTING MY NAME IN THERE SORRY MARLENE. WELL
I JUST WANTED TO SAY ANGIE THAT IF I WERE IN YOUR SHOES, DON'T GIVE UP. USE
YOUR COMPUTER TO FIND SOME GOOD INFORMATION ON ENDO. WRITE YOUR HUSBAND A
LETTER ABOUT EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL, GIVE HIM A SITUATION ABOUT HIMSELF AND IF
HE NEEDED YOUR SUPPORT HOW WOULD HE FEEL. MY HUSBAND IS SUPPORTIVE, I GAVE
HIM INFO ON THIS HORRIBLE DISEASE AND HE ACTUALLY CRIED WITH ME. IF YOU
NEED TO TALK I AM HERE. HANG IN THERE GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
with hugs and caring DEBBIE HENZE
