  Hahahaha, We took pics to update our Bios on our work homepage. I'm down 10 lbs so far (the pulmonologist weighed me today :)). In 4 more months I hope to refresh the image because there will be a whole lot less of me :-). I really hope you have a very special and safe Thanksgiving! Thank you for all of your great advice! Go Pack! -Peter

  Thanks for the hug and thoughts. You have also been on my mind. I love when you respond to a post because it is usually just what I would say. Things here are OK. I guess I'm still enjoying remission. I think some of my ills are just because I'm getting old; can't blame it all on the Crohn's :). I'm still lugging around 15 extra pounds. My Cholesterol is elevated, especially my LDLs. I'm supposed to be watching my diet and losing weight so I stopped eating meat (except fish) in an effort to cut saturated fat from my diet. I've been eating more low fat/fat free dairy products to keep my protein intake up and I've been noticing a lot more gas and bloating and constipation so now I'm like "what the hell am I supposed to eat!" I'm already gluten free. I should weigh 98 pounds but fate will not allow it! Wow, I did not realize how negative this all sounds!
  
  I do have some good stuff. Working on making a move so the house will be on the market in January. I'm enjoying the purge of junk and looking froward to a new place and fresh start.

  SOOOO cross about that bloody "Do you really want to be well" post. Glad you feel the same. 5 months for goodness sake!!!! I joined this forum to get away from that kind of crap.

  Brett and the Twinkies what a week! I'm not sure we would have beaten GB if we didn't have BF. Hope you are well! -p

  Ohhhhh yeah! That was an amazing game to watch. Unfortunately I won't be able to call on any of my Michigan customers for a while....but it's worth the sacrifice!

  I don't think I've ever given someone virtual Chicken Soup before :-) They need a virtual Martini hug hahahaha.
  
  I found those pics of Ellen the other day, I forgot when she tweaked her leg a couple of years ago! I had to carry her upstairs at bed time :) The pink cast was a nice touch. Cathy and I helped with Greyhound Pets of America - Northern Virginia Chapter for a couple of years; except when we got Ellen the "pack" became a little anti-social (1 male, 1 female domination/protective etc.) and we got scared to bring them together to the social events. I'll bet Dhani spinning was a sight with flying little soldiers hahahaha. My Male Kirby spins like that when you first get home and he's excited to see you!! Those are great memories. I can imagine how sad you are now (I love my pups so BIG) but someday I hope you and your husband find the right pup at the right time. They really are therapy on 4 legs, I know I couldn't live without them!
  
  I'm good, I've been anticipating Monday when I go back for my follow up doppler at 3 mos. I'm keeping my expectations low but it still makes me nervous. (still have a fair amount of swelling and pain) I think the psychological aspects of this are so much more difficult, the brain can run wild sometimes (at least mine :-) If there is any diminishing of the clot the Interventional Radiologist will consider taking out the IVC filter. I guess I really want it out because of some of the studies I've read, even if I end up on Coumadin forever. We'll see.
  
  In the interim we will have good Football intrigue to distract us, and besides Fall is such a wonderful time of year! I really hope you are feeling well, especially after Monday Night, hee hee. -Peter
