Dear everyone,

Thank you for the lovely kitty pictures and well wishes. Now that I’m (temporarily) not allowed chocolate, a girl has to love those kitty photos more!

I hope everyone and their families, and doggies and kitties are well. I’m doing ok. I’m so grateful my kidneys werent the problem. It’s diverticulitis. I’m on a special diet and will be on a restricted diet the rest of my life, which is frustrating but ill figure it out.

I’m currently in a rehab hospital. Everyone has been nice. But it’s not home. And of course, they have those awful gowns where you moon everyone when you wobble to the toilet.

I’m on antibiotics and other medications which make me feel awful, and I’ve lost 20 lbs since this happened. I should be here another ten days.or two weeks.

I can’t wait to get home and to be on a real Internet so I can get back with all you wonderful people, and Viking kitties. I can’t tell you how much you all mean to me. I’m blessed to know you all, I don’t feel so lonely.

I had my fill of hospitals this year too.

Hope your rehab is smooth and that you're back home in a jiffy.

I’m so grateful my kidneys werent the problem. It’s diverticulitis.

My old boss, Dr. Horace Moore, at Xerox's Palo Alto Research Center had diverticulitis. He attended Bryan's and
my housewarming party, and he ate a few cashew nuts, which he wasn't supposed to eat. He got really sick.

Just be careful to follow the instructions, and you will be fine.

...they have those awful gowns where you moon everyone when you wobble to the toilet.

During all the stuff I have to go through for my breast cancer treatment, the staff were nice enough to give me a
second gown, which I put on backward, so no embarrassment, front or back! Ask them, and they will probably
accommodate you.

I should be here another ten days.or two weeks.

We're looking forward to seeing you here again soon. Get well, sweetie!
