Two things ...

[marble falls]

First the hearts, thankyou all so much.

Second thing - I spent three weeks going to UT-South Western for two days a week ending last week.

I am cancer free and my 'damaged kidney' is working at 70%.

Thoughts and prayers work, energy works, it all works.

Thank-you all for so much.

1. Great news

[marble falls]

9. The Brucellocis was actually the worst. It had me feeling like I was aging daily. It took 16 months to figure out ...

... the cancer was figured out PDQ, fighting it took forever. It's been a loooong fight.

But I feel like looking for a part time job.

Out here they hire people like myself to be temporary teachers in the public schools. It would be worth while to cut my hair to bring a non RW voice to a class room. The pay isn't so good, only a bit over minimum wage.

25. Really happy for you

47. I had forgotten about the Brucellocis.

I need to Goggle that info.

[marble falls]

49. Any possible symptom you can imagine seems like a symptom of Brucellosis. It was crazy ...

... It was assumed it was from a urinary infection. My primary care physician was bull dog and so was the infectious disease expert I finally got to after more than a year of of it.

It used to be a very common disease.

She died in my arms as I was shifting her in bed.

Thank you so much for asking💙

35. That is great news.

Did you know that the second part of the hospital name came from my alma mater? We had a 100% acceptance rate into med school/dental school this past year.

[marble falls]

37. I guessed you were an ex when I saw towlie. UTSW is a very highly rated. It's a huge hospital campus ...

... I certainly was impressed by everyone I saw or took any kind of care with me. Even the valet parking was impressive.

[IbogaProject]

39. Great

Kidneys can heal with care.

[MontanaMama]

40. I have never known of anyone diagnosed with brucellosis.

I am happy you’re healing and elated to see you here.

[marble falls]

52. There aren't very many. The only two I know are a veternarian who stabbed his self inoculating Bison ...

... with live virus vaccine and State Dept agricultural large animal expert who got it in Indonesia.

It used to be very common. We don't have a clue how I got it.

[MontanaMama]

53. Seriously? No clue how you were infected?

That’s amazing….except that you’re getting better and that’s even more so. WOW. I’m really happy for you and yours.

[marble falls]

54. Haven't been close to cattle in twenty years, haven't found an artisan soft cheese or whole milk ...

... I trust. I trusted the ones I bought from in Ohio - more than twenty years ago.
