Hi Pat,
Thank you for all the updates which were not at all comfortable reading at times so I can hardly imagine what your body and mind are experiencing.
I am delighted and relieved that at last you are getting a break in your huge and gallant battle against this illness.
My very best wishes, thoughts, prayers and support are with you and your family that you get the result you desire and deserve.
Having been very underwhelmed by my US OTR driving experience in the 90’s I do enjoy your posts that frequently tell it as it is and not the glammed up/chromed up version which might otherwise confuse dreamers from this side of the pond.
Keep her lit and the shiny side up.
