Sonnet - Thanks for your support - it means a lot. Gave me a fresh cry
but a good one :-) I couldn't do it this morning in my heart but luckily
I had the "excuse" of the adhesion. My Dr. couldn't see me today
because he was in surgery but I see him tomorrow about it. I'll keep
you posted in regards to that.
As for work I am unsure - I know in my heart I am strong but my head
doesn't want to face it - or maybe vice versa.
The half day might not be a bad idea.
