    Dennis I don't visit here as much as I should so I missed most of this thread. It's good to hear things are looking up at home, I hope the Misses is feeling good enough to become ornery again.

    Now they aren't sure which should be done first. We thought the surgery but now all the doctors need to get their heads together to determine which is the most pressing. Some good news though and that is concerning the pancreas. They seem to think it might be okay now. She took the ride to the hospital and back with no problem and for sure she gets a little stronger each day.

    A bit of frustration setting in. Poor Judy has some terrible arthritis. Had to get off the medicine and that means she hurts all over. Doctors not much help on this one yet. I just called our family doctor to see if he has any ideas. It really hurts to see her like this but we're still holding on here.

    Not really good news. Pain sucks. Keep talking to your doc. There should be something that can help.

    I have heard that warm soapy dishwater can help, but can't confirm that.;)
    (just a little levity here, folks).

    I should have added that she did get outdoors today. Walked almost to the road and back. Yes, it did tire her a lot. She doesn't like that a bit because before this all happened she had been walking 2-3 miles per day besides her daily exercises. Needless to say, this family will have some tough days ahead just trying to get back in shape. lol

    Tell her to keep her head high. The nice thing is it's early yet, heck it ain't even spring yet. Lots of time for her to ease back into the walking/excersize stuff......
    Thank God she's doing as well as she is......I'm looking forward to meeting both of you this summer, if we get out that way!

    This thread has probably went long enough so I'll just say that Judy is a bit better today. We appreciate all the prayers and kind words and will continue to appreciate them. I'll give some updates if and when things change much and say the next hurdle is on March 20.

    A big thank you to everyone.
