It IS serious! They need to get on top of it ASAP, and stay there until they are no longer an issue. Patty actually has a Greenfield Filter in her abdominal area, after where the major veins from her legs join and before the heart/lungs.

I hear what you're saying Todd.

Patty FINALLY saw our Doctor about a "Spot" on her nose. It has gotten larger in the last month or so and has a black spot in it. He is pretty sure it is what they call a basal cell kind of thing, but she still has been referred to a dermatologist to have it looked at and then he will finally figure out what exactly it is, just a beguine spot or something more serious.

Her husband is taking off tomorrow, so it's not like she'll be alone. I can stay in touch pretty easily.

Dang. Patty just can't win, can she?

Maybe you should just stay "In reserve" and let them deal with it as a couple unless she wants you there. Hard to swallow, but eve though she's still "Daddy's Girl" she is now primarily a wife with a husband that loves her.

Seems like it's just one thing after another. She's tired of being sick, and that isn't helping her either, but I DO understand it.

That's pretty much the plan. The only thing I could really do is watch the baby while Stephen stays at the hospital with her anyway.

He's a pretty good husband to her,even though he's a Jarhead.

Yeah I had thought about the baby. THAT might take a large load off her mind.

I couldn't ask for anyone to treat her any better.

Ah even Marines have their qualities.
