Best of luck on your recuperating.
Thank you.

You are doing well. Anyone who wants Monarchs must have milkweed in the garden and must not spray it with insecticide. The milkweed is imperative for a part of the lifecycle of the Monarch. The caterpillars eat the leaves, but they grow back, over and over.

Keep up the good work.
