Karla, I'm really sorry this is happening to you. I
wish there was something I could do to help you.
Try to be positive (sounds like a stupid thing to
say...I know)...but, you won't know for sure that it's
the expanders and they'll have to take them out till
you go back to Chicago, right? Maybe, they'll fix the
problem without having to remove the expanders?
The power of prayer can be remarkable (if we really
believe)...if we "all" pray for you, maybe, God can
bring you some relief. Love, Marianne
