Hey mm66ny -
Does Joni play Dulcimer? I had not realized that - though Cindi Lauper does - she was on American Idol with hers last season.....
I love Dulcimer....keeps me sane though I will never be really good at it - I just love the drone sound....those of you not sure of how it sounds - go google on you tube...
cheers
DulcimerGal
ps - thanks for resurrecting this thread - it makes me feel better to look back and see what sorry shape I was in just six months ago...

Yes, she plays.
I take it that as compared to six months ago, you're in better shape. Good for you! It's nice to know that things can get better. |

Mike - so glad to hear you are doing well too!
Denise is also doing well -
so that is 3 of us at stage 3 when diagnosed - at around the one year since surgery mark.
Yes - it does get better - tho when you're going through the worst of it - it is very very tough to see out to the other side. Hang in there.
Cheers
DulcimerGal
