Angelia, we were on step forward, 3 steps back as well. But in the end we got there and so will you. You are in the right place right now and it sounds like you have fantastic medical staff. When steve was in hospital from the infection he got his blood pressure was low, his temperature high. Not once did they stop his treatment. They will do everything in their power to get you through to the end of treatment.

Thinking of you and hoping you are ok.
