Might be losing a couple more toes on other foot. She did say the 3 stints she had put in are helping with blood flow, so that was good. Told her I would be here for her, and that she just needed to call me. She does have another daughter living right next door, so she does have two daughters, and her husband to help. I am gonna bring some flowers…Spring is here, and those would be great. Thanks.
