Like everything else, human tends to get use to the idea of change.I for one hate changes. I am a cancer, and women cancers are known to love routine and not accept well changes.I spoke with my daughter several times since yesterday, she is stil in a state of shock, but will survive with a little helpl from her friends. As for mommy, that's me, lol. My legs have been swelled up big time for the past 5 days and it worries me.What could it be, my liver.....I do have fibrosis of the liver, maybe I'm sick there again. then there is my COPD & Emphysema.... i have cut down on the smoking due to lack of oxygen in my extremities, but can breath fine lately.So what can it be, liver or lungs ? ? ? ? Must not forget the RA Rheumatoid Arthritis, I haven't done the test yet for this, but I'm sure that the interferon has everything to do with the chronic pain I experience daily since treatment.Take your pick you have 3 choices. lol. I know it's not funny, but it's better than crying hey.How is you weekend going?

Hi McKenzie, I\'m glad to hear your daughter is doing better, I can remember when my daug. broke up with her 1st boyfriend , it was as hard on me watching her as it was her of the breakup we always wish we could endure the pain for our children but it don\'t work like that does it???? So you have swelling in your legs it could be any of the 3 that you mentioned do you have joint pain with the swelling??? Just know I\'ll have you in my thoughts and prayers, BlueEyed
Hi friend,sorry to hear your not feeling well...What about your salt intake or is your swelling more than what salt would cause? I have swelling but not much..My doc put me on water pills but I didn\'t feel very well on them.Maybe you can just call your doc to let him or her know..Hope you get better soon friend..I will pray for you and your daughter..Love you...Pam
Sorry for you and Sammy! Hope you both find comfort soon! Preyers and thoughts with you both! Luvs~Jenni~
Hi Makenzie sorry that you don\'t feel well. It sounds like you have a lot on your plate. I would like to tell you that you handle it with so much grace. Your words give people so much hope!!! So stay strong and we will keep you in our prayers. Love, Sarah
McKenzie~ You have alot on your plate right nnow. It\'s good that your daughter is handling things better. It\'s so hard for us Moms to see our kids have growing pains like that, but we must let them learn to handle things on there own. I used to think that was a cold thing to do, but it isn\'t. In the long run they become more resilant and handle stress better.
Please be careful with the leg swelling. If it keeps up for much more time, please get it checked. You are like me with multiple dx\'s and it is hard sometimes to figure out what condition is causing which symptom! Please take care of yourself and see a doc Monday if you don\'t feel alot better.
OK~ I am done mothering now, I just can\'t help myself :-o
Hope the rest of your w/e is comfortable and peaceful~in my thoughts always,
Restless
Hi Mic,, Hurting kids, causes hurting Mommie! Anyway just wanted you to know Im thinking of you..

I am so sorry you feel bad and I hope all of your physical and emotinal pain for your daughter will go away soon! Hugs Jane
Hello there Mckenzie, You are having a pile of things at once - that\'s not good. Try not to worry about your d. - they really are resilient at that age, & she has her friend with her. Sounds as tho\' your lungs need a break, but they just can\'t have one! I think you should look into the swelling of legs -if you aren\'t pregnant (???)-I think not - this is not trivial. I\'ve got to have liver tests half-yearly; just bec. of the antidepressant I take - one enzyme slightly raised: I still get rings around ankles from elastic in socks even tho\' they are above thermal underwear - takes 15 min. for marks to disappear - yet it\'s not serious I\'m told (prob.in my case it\'s my age mostly) Wish you would have the nec. tests -I guess you are sick of tracking off to doctors! Better be sure- please do it? Warm regads JaneD.
