I'm glad your home now and am feeling better. You have had majjor

major surgery and it will take along time for your body to adjust;

physically as well as mentally. Are you sure you want to go back to

work so sooon? I have had 2 previous panc surgeries and after 10

weeks I was still not ready to work. You have a lot of healing left

to do inside.

I will be having the tp/ict in cincinatti on Nov 16th unless my

insurance co pulls out. That would be just my luck. Can I ask what

kind of incision did the doc use? Did Dr. Sutherland say whether or

not the 105K islet cells he did implant would produce some insulin?

What kind of TPN were you on? How long were you in the hospital?

How long did the surgery take? Did they implant the islet cells

while you were still in the OR or did they isolate them first then

implant them later? Were you in an ICU? I'm sorry if the

questions are personal and you dont have to answer, I'm just

curious.

I know your son is so happy to have his Dad home. 4year olds are at

a great age. They are so much smarter then we give them credit

for. My kids are a little older; 18, 14 and 9; old enough to be

scared for their mom. But 4 year olds have the purest minds and

hearts; you will miss it one day. I think my son, 14 has multiple

personalities and none of them are clean..lol.

I'm glad to hear from you; I had wondered about your for awhile. I

saw where you wife had posted and that you were doing well. It was

good to hear. Please dont rush going back to wwork; its going to

take awhile to get back to being yourself; your new self.

Warmly,

Chrissy
