Tammy,

I'm too out-of-it still to remember if I responded to this yet, so let me make sure.  I am still cheering for you.  I knew you would do great!  Keep getting better and we will talk when we are both feeling better.

Hi Tammy,

I'm so glad that you are home safe and sound and doing so well. You go girl!!! I heard from Jay and the "magic scarf" is on its way to me! I'll wear it proudly, just as you, Jay, and Mike did. Thank You!!!

Have wonderful holidays with your family. I wish you a Happy, Healthy 2010!!!

Take care,
