Dana, welcome, you seriously had me laughing at the one stop shopping line! All of my major surgeries were done all at once as well and I'll have to use your line sometime.

This site has been such a blessing for me in coping with this disease as well and where I wish you didn't have to be, I'm glad you're here.

The worst advice is the advice that gets sugar coated, Just always tell it like it is. I think it is appreciated much more with the lite shining on it.


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.
