Jeannie T., I am trying to take each day as it comes. I have told the therapist that I had broken both my ankles a short time ago & also, I had back surgery & may be having more when I am done learning how to walk with my "new" knee. It aches a lot & I just hope that the doctor won't cut me off pain meds. I try not to take them too often...but sometimes I wake up at night in so much pain. I doubt if you will experience what I am experiencing right now. You have Buzz to keep you young. I have 2 little West Highland White Terriers...& they are getting old just like Paul & myself. Otherwise, we don't have a young person around to keep us going. ~Jen ----- Original Message ----- From: <askgranny@juno.com> To: <southern-chat@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, November 27, 2010 10:30 PM Subject: Re: [SOUTHERN-CHAT] Jen's back ! > Glad your fingers are still working !
