I'm Up Again

Hi Friends,

It's been a long time since I've been able to sit at the computer or any place except in  my bed. In fact I still have to sit or lay in the above mentioned and it seems it might be a permanent condition. Since June 6, 2006 and this  past Monday I've had three surgeries on my back due to the pain pump I originally had implanted in 1989. I won't go into all the details now but I do want to let you know I am finally doing some better. The new pump had to be moved to a new site due to infection.  Pumps can cause serious problems as I've learned at a heavy cost.

But don't give up hope, yet. For further information on this subject look under the  "Pain Pumps & Me" articles I''ve posted previously.

Right now my goal is to get out of bed by myself and into my powerchair for an hour or so.

Love to all,

Wanda

    All of the photos in these albums are the work of Dorothy Gantenbein, an artist who's work was descibed as,"...incredible. It's as if the artist feels our pain, and captures it in a picture..." Dorothy has suffered with athsma her entire life. She has graciously allowed us to use her work to decorate our site. She has a vast compilation of photo essays on her own page, which I urge you to visit. Check her site frequently! Dorothy is prolific. Her work is not for sale.
