Hiya Lisa
Thanks....you're such a peach!
Yup, I wanna be good and knocked out! And, I don't want to wake up when
they're pulling the tube out of my throat this time!! That happened
with my lap - plus, I felt them yanking the thingie out of my navel -
not very pleasant!!
My aunt is hanging in, very tired and not able to do much, but at least
she's at home where she wants to be and is not suffering. I may take a
quick trip this weekend to see her before my surgery - I probably won't
be much up to 3 1/2 hours in the car for a while after they hyst...
we'll see how my body is behaving later in the week.
YOU better take care of yourself - or else! I may have to send emer
after you! :)
luv and butterflies, Amy
