[Vhfcn-l] I am not dead yet.

[William Confer]

John, Glad to hear you’re doing better, just listen to the Doc and do what he/she says! Remember when I turned 65 I started going into the Hospital once a year and have one Body part removed, so after Pancreatitis, then Gall Bladder, then Appendix and a few more too numerous to mention, I’am feeling well! Take Care!  Bill Confer, RVN 68-69, Hornets.

They finally isolated the infection and let me come home yesterday afternoon.  I have a Picc Line and need to give myself an IV every day for probably four more weeks.  Actually Gretchen is doing the work.
