Dear Suu,
Thank you for your past kind words. I feel bad that your journey is so bumpy. We bike riders like smooth roads, with lots of twisties of course. My therapy, when down in the dumps, is a nice long ride. When that can't happen I take out some old Harley magazines and slowly turn the pages as I ride along with the writers of the articles. Kick back and let your imagination take you on your most favorite ride. I pray your road smooths out and the healing you need is quick to come. Till then "keep the shiny side up and the rubber side down"(even if it is in your mind only). I have some magazines I would be happy to send to you if you like.

It's not only sad that I feel, but frustrated as the house is a mess and the family has lost faith in me.   For the last few weeks, they want me to sell the house and move into an Assisted Living.   The surgery was nearly 3 years ago and I don't want to give up my home of over 30 years for this surgery and had such outcomes.
