Guest guest Posted January 28, 2000 Report Share Posted January 28, 2000 Well folks, I have returned to the Crew and want to thank you all for your kind wishes and prayers for both my Mom and Dad who went under multiple heart procedures and surgeries the past 3 months. I found myself again in the role of a caregiver, maybe my life's destiny. In the middle of all this not only did both my parents get the flu, but so did I despite the fact that we all had flu shots! I am happy to report that my parents are both doing much better and that we consider their outcomes true miracles. So prayers and modern medicine can work together. There were some real lessons learned regarding seeking out the best doctors available -- not just the best at your local community hospital. The knowledge and outcomes are frequently far different if you have the true experts. We all know this regarding neurosurgeons and other practitioners who treat NF2. Some of you did send me messages on my chicken address. Unfortunately to add to my woes my server went down so if you sent me anything in the past 2 weeks, I have been unable to open it. I will be sending 2 more posts with separate titles so that crewmembers who delete mail by title will know what my messages are about. Because I have missed so much time at work, I am reconsidering going to Las Vegas. I probably will not know until last minute. I hope that is okay with the organizers. If not, I will understand. One final question: Before I left Carla was anticipating surgery. Does anyone know how she is doing? Again, it's good to be back. A happy healthy new year to you all!
