<p class="MsoNormal">Michelle Tina went infor a relatively minor hernia surgery ironically on my birthday 2015. She apparently came through the surgery but a week later went back into the hospital because she became septic. She ended up in intensive care
and had fluid on her lungs. She had to be airlifted to the University of Maryland Hospital where they got the septsis under control then she caught the flu and after that, she suffered a cerebral stroke and at that point I had to make the most awful decision
I could make that was to turn off the ventilator and let her go. <o:p></o:p></p>
