Geez Christine, I wish I had words to comfort you and this situation, but as usual, I am not that wise. I have you on the top of my prayer list as always and I will be there by your side in spirit. I can understand the being scared part and worried about different things. I remember when I came out of the induced coma, they had a giant sizewd diaper on me That was a big upset to my system just thinking about it and as soon as I could move. I had to shower with or without consent. I have been thinking about you for the last few days and wishing I could be there to talk to you and maybe get a smile from some of my BS.Enjoy the shakes and whatever you can get down. JIM
