Praised be Jesus Christ! Alleluia!
I know many of us have expressed the fear of revealing who we are for fear that someone might find our sharings here and abuse the information. With that said, I am attaching an email that came from my sister, Melodie, today that brings to the fore each of our fears and makes them real. To the point my beloved friends and support tha...

Well I have a new disease to get used to. I went out for two days (how exhausting can it be to push on a toggle to run an electric wheelchair?) and then slept for two days. Between the MS, the Fybro, and now the Addison's all are supposed to cause fatigue and that's what happened. I am worried about getting the tooth pulled because that is surgery in a way an...1 Recommendation7 Comments

I don't know what there is to pray for anymore. I have an aquaintence on here that was in the same or more pain that I was in before I got the pump. She was so happy because I had sent her a message with Medtronic's phone numbers on it and told her to call at least on of the numbers and they would give her a doc's name that implanted it in her area. She has kid...1 Recommendation6 Comments

I've got to learn to walk again. You know,,,the heel-toe way. I noticed this morning that I'm not walking. It's a kinda long shuffle. My first thought was it was the new shoes I'm breaking in. They're regular shoes. Not the athletic type I've been wearing for so many years. They're about twice as heavy and stiffer than the othe...1 Recommendation5 Comments

I was up all night and most of the morning waiting for the doc to call that was going to do the surgery on Nick's toe. The nurses finally found out what time the surgery was scheduled for - 2:00 PM. When I heard that earlier this morning I figured that they would call later and I could catch a nap. When I was sleeping the anastesialogist called and I missed the call. I...1 Recommendation5 Comments -

Well I've turned into an expert sleeper. This morning the visiting nurse woke me up with a surprise visit - changing the foley which I have trying to get done through them since I left the hospital at the end of Sept. It was interesting because I had to chuck all my medicine right away including the Florinef because she was going to get a wacky reading. She did twice. ...1 Recommendation5 Comments
