Dr. Robert Rabkin

This is my hero. I truly love him dearly. He has saved my life two time. First by giving me the surgery and helping me live longer and happier, and a second time when I got an infection. He was amazing, and stayed right on top of it all. Even though he was so busy saving so many other lives.

Below is my beloved Dr. Regina Connel also from California Pacific Medical Center. She is a wonderful doctor. She gave me the referal to Dr. Rabkin.

Here is my sister Valerie, who was only suppose to stay with me for 3 weeks to take care of me fallowing surgery. She is the one who drove me to the emergency room when I got the infections in the middle of the night. And then she stayed with me for 7 weeks taking care of all my needs and helping me so much. I owe her big time!!!!

And here is my sweet 4 year old Wolf. (OK he's my sisters). Besides having a visiting nurse from the hospital, My sister, and Katrina who took care of me, Wolf was the junior nurse. He would come upstairs, wash his hands like everyone else and say, "Come on Mom. It's time to do Insa" (his word for Cynthia). when it was time to give me my antibotics. He really would have done all the work if anyone of us would have let him!
