improvement, murielm99.

This medical machinery can't help if it doesn't know where to help, so hang with them and never be afraid to ask questions, even of the technicians, and demand honesty and their best opinions.

Try to consider every new day in between as one where you enjoy the world, those whose companionship you value, and where you have the chance to do at least one one thing you still want to do.

We're here. Not going anywhere.
