[quote=davidcpa]Ian,

That's a lot on everyone's plate. Please use this site as often as you want. That's what we are here for. There are many on this site that have had that exact surgey. Christine is correct that she needs to eat as much as possible now.[/quote]

thank you so much David...it has been so stressful for us both emotionally and financially. Most of all it would be good to really know what is going on...ASK QUESTIONS I told them. But nobody is willing to do it. And for an inlaw to voice out her thoughts is a big NO NO!! My comments are being misinterpreted as not wanting to help financially. So I just listen. I always tell my husband that with this kind of disease we have to be knowledgeable, ask questions. Sorry for venting, it has been very very frustrating for me.
