Hi my friends...
I am still alive ... though--obviously still absent a lot. It seems to me that I am so busy in this new home and with the people here--I hardly do anything outside of it. I have not been good with my phone calls to people and keeping up with my special friends. I suck
I am working hard at establishing a new routine again...it seems much harder here. With 9 people in the house, the lack of meds for the last 2 months, establishing school; medical relationships, etc and helping my son through this transition to graduate here>>>I am toast!!!!
I finally got to my new prescriber. To be very blunt, more than I would usually be in here, he was a complete and total self absorbed, strutting peacock ass muncher who needs to be killed in order to save others from his presence!
The end of my very long story AKA first appointment, I finally got my medications and have been dealing with all the initial side effects of them. Nausea and profound tiredness are the worst. I have had some nights where I throw up but, mostly I don't feel good all the time. Also, I am extremely sleepy. I take little cat naps throughout the day. I can barely keep my eyes open long enough to have a conversation. However, I finally got my first 5 straight hours of sleep last night. Not all nights are good, even on medication. Considering though that I have had so little sleep in the last two months...I was extremely thankful.
I am still here, still thinking of you guys daily. I owe you all a continued and on-going apology ...I don't know when I will pull my life together and back on a regular schedule. Please just know that I am proud of each of you for being here...You help yourself and each other when you show up and bother to read, post and voice yourselves.
Much love to each of you.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...

Your in my thoughts
I am trying to keep up with you guys through the posts. Love and hugs to you all.
Hopng and prayering something wonderful happens soon for you and your wonderful family.
Do they have low income housing??? apartments or houses??? Our Dear friend Tipper is going through about the same thing. she was sharing rent with some friends I'll use that loosely. But Millie and her Mother are apartment house hunting also.
I'll ask Millie if I can update her status. please pray a little prayer for everyone. Comforting hugs.
I'd take you and Your family in. I'd be a bedroom short though. :).and I'm all the way across the country. :(.

Please bring our group back together.
The last post was from David asking if anyone had taken 15mg of morphine. It was around 10 days after the board was closed.
The board closed 7 days after your above post telling us what was going on in your life. I believe you had full intentions of coming back.
You are missed. Many members on this board are missed.
With love,
hippy
