Jane, How are you doing?...
I know exactly what you're saying about the noise. I counted the seconds of each noise to make sure I was getting the same amount (time-wise) each treatment. Funny the things that go through our...
Jane, It is good to hear from you, and it sounds like everything is going well for you. Nice that you met Rose and Libby. I met a lot of nice folks too. The lung cancer and breast cancer are...
