Hi Dear Lady,
Just a message of thanks to you and to all. I have been very quiet and
away from this forum during the month of July because over this past
month, Barb and I have been to the emergency room of our hospital no
less than 5 times for different circumstances, then subsequent two major
operations, one life threatening and a few very concerning and of course
the admittance to the hospital for the operations and recuperation. Last
night was the first night, we spent at home, which Barb was not in
discomfort, or pain and we just lifted our glass and said a BArucha to
life, to our G-d, to our friends, to our family and a big thank you from
the bottom of our hearts for one more day. Indeed a remarkable story,
complicated, complex, but my Barb is the testament to the will of what a
human being can endure and overcome as basically she wishes to live and
be loved. Thank you, again for your great message. HOPe comes to us in
many forms. These messages of love and concern is one. So, our
anniversary celebration for a five year survival has been......a miracle
in many ways. Wish I could express and articulate how and why, but we
will continue in that vein for the next five and say 30 years of
surviving for quality time and life.
God Bless,
marty auslander
