Jean,

I'm really sorry your Thanksgiving turned out the way it did. It sounds like you have been through a LOT!

Please keep us posted on how you are feeling. Have you found out what the main cause of the pain?

Take as much time as you can to rest and take care of yourself. Now is not the time to push yourself.

*hug*

Love, Anna
