> ...I saw Dr J. GI and he gave me lortab 10 which is agreeable to

me... I could not afford the surgery. All 3 doc's got together

and decided that they would do the surgery for free...... given my

state of affairs!! I can't believe how nice and generous they all

are to help me... I will have to find out the Tampa General

hospitals surgeons hame and make arrangements at his convienence

tomorrow and will find out all the details i can. My tom just

freaks out every time I go to the hospital....he is my earth

angel...you know...Jan>>>

Dear Jan,

Sometimes miracles still do happen. May God be with you and Tom

while you go through this surgery. Maybe some of the other PAI

members can share their experiences so your Tom and children will

know what to expect. I do know, from the experiences of others, that

the time of recovery is usually longer since you have already been

through so much. Please keep us updated.

With prayers,
