Welcome to OCF, Tim! Glad to have another survivor aboard. Its best to write on the forum so it lives on to help hundreds of others who read this site. PMs are great for personal info such as phone numbers. A full recovery takes a long time but it will happen.


PS... I think I know you from one of the facebook chats that Ive been added to. I rarely have time to read or post but I do check in once in a while. I tend to stick here on the forum where I know medical info is correct and cant hurt anyone. Plus doing my admin duties requires a considerable amount of time every day.
