I don't think so Lou. Could you resend it please? Today is a bad day for me. In pain and waking up before 4 am in pain....nothing seems to help so I am carrying on with difficulty. This seems to be a bit of a pattern...pain for a week and then a lessening for 4 or 5 days. and so on. When I am feeling better I tend to be positive but when the pain hits I am hell to live with and misery to myself. So, as you now know, my surgery was successful in that I am not dead but sometimes feel I would be better off that way. Donna J
