Hi Kathi, I've been anxiously waiting to hear from you. I hope you got the email I sent you. Sorry to hear you had such a rough time of it, but glad they kept you at the hospital longer so they could keep an eye on you. I know you must feel awful right now, but you are right, it will get better when the tubes are removed and healing progresses. Still so sorry you are having to deal with all this, but love that you have kept your sense of humor in spite of it. Thanks for keeping in touch and letting us know you are on the road to recovery. Thoughts and prayers will continue for you. Hang in there. Luvs

Hi Kathi, Glad you let us know. Lots prayers and good wishes coming your way. So sorry you have to go through this, but know you have the determination--and a great sense of humor-- to see you through. Come visit us here whenever you can. Hugs and prayers, Luvs

Thanks ladies.Sorry i'm 2 days late getting here.Had a good b'day,ds#1 and his family took me to the Olive Garden(my choice) for dinner,which was very nice.And i spent many hours on the phone right up til last night,with calls from my sisters,cousins and other relatives on the east coast,and all of then as well as friends out here on the west coast. Looks like both of us(kathleen's) are here in Ca. I also share my b'day with one of my 1st cousins and an aunt. Myself,my sister and my brother all had a girl on aug 18th,different years though,they are all 2 years apart. Kathi
