Dear Debster,

Hey! How are you? Have you recieved any of my e-mails? If so please do

write back sometime. We all miss you here in Chas. where it is cold, and wet

now. Wish we could go to the new I-Max movie. Mrs. Leaphart and I may go

when I get some more strength I hope. How is your pain, and nausea? Did I

tell you that Dr. started me on Reglan? It can be used like it is for

you for gastric emptying, or for simple nausea. It's helped me get my

stomach working a bit better! Well friend, Please do write when you can!

Say Deb, who or what is PTPpurple?

Your Pancreas Pal Always,

Henry
