Frances I appreciate all your encouragement you've shown here for us given your story. Hang in there. You're a tough lady and can get through this too!
Sorry for this late reply...I'm glad you're doing better. Thank you for your kind words, too.

Hello Frances, So sad to learn about your past few years. Prayers and hugs coming your way from Canada. Please know that I am thinking about you. Hugs, Bonnie
Francis, another Canadian sending good vibrations your way, you've had a rough go of it.
Thanks!! I'm feeling much more at peace...I think this just threw me for a loop.

Frances, I'm so sorry so much loss and grief has come your way in the last few years. And it's super stressful, having heart problems. My heart goes out to you very much. I hope being here is a help and hope bit by bit you can get your feet... Read more.
Thank, Catie...it all hit when I felt I was FINALLY getting my life back. I'll deal with this, too. Thanks for the encouragement.
It sure doesn't feel fair when so much piles on, esp. when you get sideswiped out of the blue. And high anxiety is the pits. I hope you'll keep us posted as you work toward the surgery.
