Doh! Lemme clear something up. Stace's co-workers aren't mad at her for not being there. They are being very sweet and supportive...I was saying that anyone in this situation would feel like their co-workers would loose patience.

Stace works with some good people, like she said, she's had one of them in surgery with her, looking out for her and wishing her well. I just wanted to offer some thought on what else Stace is going through, not "just" all these foot problems.

Hugs, Kelly

Stace, I'll call you at lunch or after work to check on you, sweetie. Get well and get rest. ((gentle hugs))
