Other than that, she is doing well enough. Ive gained a bit of
respect. She keeps a positive attitude most of the time, even though
she is home alone 4-5 nights a week. This week, she will be home alone
10 straight days. Well..the dogs are there.

They finally diagnosed her as having Factor 5/Leiden

Holy cow. I don't think I've ever heard of that many contrary indications
and interactions. She must be pretty tough to put up with it.

That's an example of where medicine is going. Just trying to balance those
things probably would have been impossible ten or fifteen years ago. So,
it's easy to hate Big Pharma, but they're keeping a lot of people alive.
