Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | Hi and welcome to our home. Here's hoping that you are just a visitor and not a victim of OC. If a victim, then you will be thought of and in a lot of prayers for the best. We are all your friends whichever it is.
Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April.
--- Passed away 5/14/14, will be greatly missed by everyone here
