    I've beent thinking about Laurissa, and am glad to hear the report that they got it all and that she's home resting now. I'm sure she will be glad to see you, soup or no soup. You're a dear sister to take such good care of her.

    Let her know that we are all still with her while she recuperates and look forward to hearing from her whenever she's up to it.

    Take care,
    Cindy

    So glad to hear Laurissa's
    So glad to hear Laurissa's doing well after her surgery and hope she enjoys the soup you bring her... what a great friend! :)

    I'm a little confused, though. I thought Laurissa posted that the chemo shrunk her tumors and they didn't see anything there. Did I miss a post after that?

    Wishing her a speedy & full recovery!

    Hugs ~ Mar
