Susan,
Way to go tiger. Don't worry about that breathing thing, you'll have that wired in no time. Save your staples when they pull them out. I have 40 of them from my hip. I'm going to wear them some how around my neck when I run at the gym. I have surgery scheduled Jan 6th. Not sure how I will react to my hair being orange. Gotta do what ever it takes, I guess. Maybe if I could get a Dennis Rodman jersey?
Get some rest. It's good to hear from you. Keep it coming when your up to it. Aloha, Karl

hey Susan,

in my surgeries, at the beginning of this year, I had my phrenic and my intercostals taken. yes, my breathing suffered, but now I can hardly notice it. it felt like my lung capacity was cut down a ton. but I think my working on breathing deep and aerobic excercise helped a lot to open out my lungs.

I so happy you camp through surgery so well!

Susan, I hope you are doing better every day. I don't know what happened to this post. I posted this before I asked you about the avulsion and it didn't post.

Love,

Susana

Susan, Hope you make a great recovery. I have an apt. with surgeon tomorrow to see whether he is sending me for surgery or not.
