Thank you Carole, but i keep thinking my luck is finally running out. I have a bad feeling about the end result. Cheated death so many times, it can't keep going on, forever, or should i say indefinitely. My problems are getting more and more, now with the stroke on top of everything, my teeth falling out, being extremely low on vitamin D (yes, still) and a couple of weeks my stomach was bleeding. Finally that was OK, but my poor stomach, my GERD and ulcers hurt daily, with that blood thinner. I don't think i can hang in there much longer. TUFFY just doesn't feel so tuff anymore.
Hugs, Marion

Marion, when I think of you, think of the song "I Will Survive."

I'm not surprised to hear you say that, Irene, because i definitely believe everything you have ever told me.
However, unfortunately, my luck is going to run out eventually, my friend; i have cheated death just too many times. I don't mind, Irene, as long as i don't get a stroke that will totally disable me. That's what i'm actually afraid off. Killing me (quickly), is one thing, but being totally dependent on someone, NO
Thank you for being so honest with me. I hope you are feeling better these days. As always, i wish you the very best. Have a good night and a better tomorrow. Hugs, Marion

Sorry to hear that. "Prognosis is poor" means you are not likely to recover your health or to live a long life. But, then again, Tuffy, they told you a few years ago that you weren't likely to live more than a year or so. You've proved them wrong before, you can do it again.

My doctor just wrote a report on me, with all of my different illnesses, including the stroke i recently had, and stated that my prognosis is poor.
What exactly does that mean (prognosis is poor)? Honestly!
Hugs, Marion
