    • About Me

      Cosmetologist, have two children and five grandchildren. Have been on a Spiritual Journey for 30yrs...became a Licensed Teacher at Unity Church......Enjoy teaching and reading topic's that help me to remember that there is more to me than "this RA body!" It's been a lonely path at times; however, I continue to search for inner and outer help...Now I've found this grp. and I am pleased, as I think "loved one's" just don't understand...I think it's too painful for them to watch!

      From AzSherryberry Yesterday

      Hey my friend of Hope. I hope you are well today. I feel wayy better when I woke this morning. The 'crud' whatever I had going on causing my misery to double is gone. Yes! Good happens. How's life for you today? If you need hope I'll share. : ) I will be at my daughter's again from today till maybe a week from now. If the computer they have is in working order I'll drop in but if not then I'll be back to see you all in a week or so. I hope your Thanksgiving is a good day. God's blessings of peace, love and much hope to you.
      ~~Sherry

      From KimberlyGarcia Wednesday

      Vicki, good for you!! You've said what many of us feel. There's no logical reason for us to feel shame for whatever ails us...we didn't CHOSE to have IT. But there it is. We feel what we feel. Now you can let it go and get on with living, huh?! You're wonderful and strong. Take Care, Kim

      From MalenaS Tuesday

      Vicki,
      I just read your journal. I'm so sorry today is so, so bad for you. I am proud of you for surrendering all your feelings about this thing called chronic pain. It's a very good, positive step. It's great that you can do this.

      Yes, I agree DS is wonderful!!! So, vent away. I know it helps to be able to do that here. Please remember, I am here for you any time. You are such a kind, warm- hearted person and deserve only the best. It is such an honor to be your friend.

      I hope the day gets better for you!

      Take good care of yourself,
      Malena

      Vicki,
      Sending a hug your way in the hope it finds you feeling better.

      Thanks again for your support through this difficult time for me. I'm still processing all sorts of information on Lupus. I've done some research, but I'm staying away from scary info. Most of it doesn't even pertain to me.

      How have you been feeling? I'd love to chat with you on IM one day soon. When do you usually go on?

      Take good care of yourself,
      Malena
