"I continue to have new complications but overall, I am doing well and enjoying my family and friends!"

Scared! Mood
Monday, July 13, 2009
Well I got my test results back and it is not my liver or gallbladder, but they suspect it is graft vs. host disease which means that my transplant is being rejected. I have to go back to the hospital for a scope and I am scared. I have been doing so well and out of the hospital scene for over 1 year and now....why? I have so much to look forward to. So whatever prayers I have left in me - they are out there and to please help my daughters and K get through this. My daughters need me so much and I need them. I want to be here!

    I am OK. All of results came back negative - Phew! But I think that it is the Fosamax that I am taking for osteopirosis. I have heard and read quite a bit about how dreadful the negative effects are and I believe that is my problem. I have mentioned it to my doctors in the past but that would be too easy of an answer. So, now I have brought it up again and I think they are listening. I stopped taking it for 2 weeks and low and behold, I am not vomiting, no nausea, no pains. Imagine that! Thank you for your concern and good wishes.
    I hope that you are doing well - keep in touch!
