        The visit to Hopkins and Dr. Johnston was great, and I understand why he has such a good reputation. The same was true of his staff and the nurses. The reason I said that I don't have the test results, is because the test in not until next Friday. I have great confidence in Hopkins and Dr. Johnston's team. Thanks
