I am amazed at how well you are doing after this HUGE surgery. You have youth and strength on your side - FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT!!! If you don't feel confident in your doctor find another one. There are many doctors out there and feeling confident in the one providing your care means so much. Continued prayers! Sending you a HUGE hug from Philly! Wanda
