Me and my green bean. . .life sucks right now

Hi Leona,
Claire has articulated my thoughts perfectly!!  I am sorry that you have been suffering and hope that this resolves your pain and that you get to keep you little bean :) 

Please don't hesitate to reach out if I can be of any help to you - You have been a great help to me in the past and you are such a giving person and are so willing to help everyone who asks for it.  You know I live close by :)  

take care and let us know how you are doing,
Steph 

I am so sorry to hear about this.

I was just discharged today and I have heard more nitemares about these surgeries and the complications.

I hope you get better really soon

There are far more success stories than there are night mares but as is human nature we do not speak up as much when things are going well as opposed to when things are not so much.  I re-iterate that in spite of all my trials my quality of life is far better now than it was then and given my "druthers" I would so do this again NO REGRETS!
