Philip really enjoys the changing of the colors in the fall so Shelly and I had thought we would take him on a short ride to the mountains. Frankly he didn’t look great when he woke up, but we thought we would try it just to give him some pleasure. When the final moments to leave arrived he just looked and us and said ya know I am really not up to it. I really thought the decision was a good one, but I felt badly. Forty years old and not feeling well enough to take a 1 ½ hour trip in the car to see something that you love. We all decided to look forward to next year and hope that the transplant is complete and he is recovering and able to make the trip.

Testimonials
As an academic, I tend to do major research before every medical procedure, from giving birth and nursing, to most recently, rotator cuff surgery for my shoulder. People grimaced and told me that this was one of the most painful and debilitating surgeries of them all. I was so fortunate to find Lorrie Klemons, who immediately provided me with a list of items I could do to prepare for the surgery, for the family to help me through the time, as well as clever and simple ways to make life easier and more manageable with a whole assortment of tips and ideas. Lorrie's list and expert advice, as well as her warm and loving support, got me through a very difficult time. One year later I am pain-free, fully mobile, and extremely happy. What a wonderful resource!!

You made various fine points there. I did a search on the theme and found the majority of people will agree with your blog.
