Chris: No, dear, it really doesn't ever end, and that's difficult for some
people to understand. My doctor has told me it's gone, and most of the time
I believe her, but sometimes this terrible fear just washes over me and I
can hardly breathe! This doesn't happen often, though. I just have to get
my mind on something else when it does. I'm so glad your dad is feeling
good. This is a terrific sign! And the eating part -- let him enjoy, as I
know you will. I'm still eating whatever I want whenever I want. Probably
clogging the hell out of my arteries, but I don't think about that. --
Love, Kathy
