[tri-wings] Re: What a choice! (long)

Dear Sharon,
  Wow! What a stress. I'm sorry you have to make this decision but guess we're 
so glad we live in a day and age that we have one. I was reading in a book my 
Grandma's sister wrote. I was just amazed when I kept reading that "They got 
sick and died." It really hit me that in those days they wouldn't even know a 
cause. You & Jamie are blessed that you're a nurse and have so much knowledge 
and don't let the ignorant docs push you around. So many times I see how we 
react to someone can make all the difference. Thinking of Jamie and your family 
as surgery plans progress.
Lots of Love,
LouAnn
