[Magdalen] Update on my wrist--Prayers please

[Ginga Wilder]

Sorry you will have another surgery, Jay, but sounds as if you will get
relief.  You are in my prayers for just that.

My sister had a bizarre problem in one of her wrists a few years ago.  I
believe the final diagnosis was pseudogout??  At any rate, she had a wrist
full of chrystals that came on suddenly and was extremely painful.  Surgery
helped her a whole lot.  She also had hand therapy following surgery.
