Fellow PWP - I just wanted to take a moment to thank all of you who have written to me about my recent pig-cell implant surgery. I have received many notes, via this list and by private E-Mail, which were full of encouragement and good wishes. As one of, as I understand it, only eleven people to undergo this particular procedure, I feel it is an absolute duty to keep other patients informed about my condition. This list provides that ability. So, in the absence of any dramatic changes, watch for my postings every three months or so. Any significant developments will be reported if and when they occur. In the meantime, feel free to write if there are any questions you may have. Thanks again, Jim Finn
