its been about 5 days from when my wife got her stitchs out. and we got the tests back from the lump on her thyroid and she has cancer in her thyroid. the doc said that if you had to have cancer you would want this type of cancer. it is about 3-5% fatal at her age. so she has to go in and have her thyroid remove on april 2 then have some more test run to see if it has spread to anything else. her sprits are up. i think iam taking it hard then she is. i think iam going to go crazy soon.

dragsdaily · 01-27-2007, 06:01 PM

the tilt bed will be able to tilt when layed on the rocker. i have to change the hinges to be as low and as close to the body as possible. when i build the alu framed bed with fiberglass bed sides iam going to use bushing just like the 6 link for the hinges.
