Hello Andy,
I sending all my best wishes and prayers that will make a full recovery and also that you will remain mentally strong thru all the procedures and stays at the hospital. Being in the hospital is humiliating and boring, and your sick and the sheets scratch you raw and you just want to be in your bed, in your own home. I cried tears of deep sadness when I heard of your condition. I had felt such joy when the word was you were good to go. I am so sorry.
I have 5 auto-immune diseases over the past 11 years. They all involve chronic pain which be-cause I am only in my 40′s when it all started they would not treat with pain killers. It is much worse now. They are still treating me in the same way. Every once a year I have a psychotic break and just fall apart from trying to act normal for the family everyday, and I can’t take it. Now, I am struggling the worst with Rheumatoid, peripheral neuropathy, fibromyalgia, Sjogrens Disease, and others. My strength to continue is tested every minute of every day. Your series Spartacus was a wonderful enjoyment for me. I begged my husband to buy the DVD’s so that I had the show to continue to watch. I also equally enjoyed the God’s of the Arena. I loved the plot and twists and turns. It was amazing. So was the National Geographics find of the gladiator bodies carefully buried in York. But, unlike Roman custom all were beheaded. Forensics were able to determine the age, cause of death, and the weapons of each man in each careful grave. You may want to see if you can find out about that it was fascinating, on NatGeo.
I have been saying prayers for your return to full health, and looking for a site to tell me where I can send you a card. Please get well . All the best wishes, Cindi Hein
