Hopefully they can give her a "tune-up" and she'll be ready for another 100,000 miles!
I almost lost my wife back in 1979. The Dr came in and told me she had less than 6 mo to live. We got her patched up and she's fine now.

Our prayers are with you both.

I should ask you how you got through that time..........I have had a couple times last fall when I though we might be there.

Morning, I remember those days. 4 am, eat, then off to the logging woods. Now I can't seem to get reved up in the am. I must lack focus----- what were we talking about? Oh ya-- the weather. Just wait it'll change.
Always liked getting started in the early am and getting things done. I felt good at the end of the day. Now just confused. The more I get done the more there is to do, but it looks like we have a nice day to get it done. OOPs,.. we're talking about the weather again, must have lost focus. Jeff
