      After reading from so many of you that I will need someone with me, I've asked my sister-in-law if she would help with the 2 dogs. She is going to take them to her house 3 hours away. I'd prefer that they be at home, but this will surely help my husband out and reduce on of my many worries.
      Junosand, I'm anxious to hear all of your details. It sounds like you're continuing to improve.
