Glad to see your post here JCG. That's a good sign, although given that 6 days have passed since, I hope things are continuing to move in a positive direction or are at least stable.
These things are marathons, even ultras, not sprints, and I think that's one of the things that's so hard about it (and as you know I've got something dreadful like this going in my own household, for several years now). It's a long slow march and sometimes it seems like things are going backward not forward, because frankly sometimes that's exactly what's happening. It's maddening, and can lead to despair, but the resilience of the human body and psyche and spirit is really powerful.
So, like your other friends here, I join in with prayers for you, that your spirit and your body receive special care, and strength, and healing.
