sorry marriane - i guess the emails got mixed up! the first one i got they
said they were 28 yrs old and had polio at age 5! I copied the other 2
groups on the email I returned to you. ill copy again so the email adresses
are in the heading for you. Sounds like you have had it pretty rough
lately. i hope you have a better day tomorrow. I am here when you feel
good enough to chat.
have a pain free day,patti
