    No infection..I didnt think so...I thought it was my thyroid all
    along and it was.  The hyperthyroid is turning to hypothyroid from my
    meds becasue of my giant weight loss.  So I am over medicated.  So now
    they just called and decreased my levothyroxine to one pill a day down
    from 3.  I hope it works.

    Oh, and new boyfriend on the horizon..we met once last wednesday and
    he is really nice.  We have been talking on the phone and he is coming
    to dinner on friday nigfht.  He had tears in his eyes when I told him
    about the health issues.  Last night he read me poetry that he has
    wrote on the phone for over an hour.  He writes some really good
    stuff!  Stay tuned..it could be a great summer!   and his name is Roger!  How wierd is that?

    Hi!  I just read your answer to the contest and its very apparent that both you and I have the same exact relationship with our moms.  I have to put my Dad in there too!  And lately, I have been dreading the fact that one of these days, they are no longer going to be with me here on earth.  It scares the crap out of me.  But it was so nice to read your responce and be able to relate to everything in it!

    I think the fact that we are both dating a guy named Roger is a hoot!

    Hi Jennifer,

    How have you been? I hope considering that few of us on this site has a clue as to what good days, let alone a week would be a miracle well then, you are probably just okay.

    My daughter is still healing, unable to have driving privileges yet-but she sounds good and the boys are so happy she is home. They are so young that the middle one could not comprehend why-if the iv bag were empty then why could she not return home. They are doing as good as possible. Larry is still weak. We went to the surgeon today, and the doc took his staples out. I think he did a crappy job of not stapling good enough because Lar has quite a bit of seepage from the gap. In a bit I am going to wake him up (He's sleeping in his chair.), and I will clean the space thouroughly & lightly cover it. He is still in a considerable amt. of pain, but he's slowly weaning off of his pain meds. He's able to drive again-already. I think this surgeon was a bit too lenient. Our daughter still can't drive and her surgery was prior to his. That was something else though to have both of them each having an agscess and Diverticulitis. It's better and each day there is improvement. He already went out to one of the places for a short while where he plays in the band. I knew he'd never stay away, but he didn't stay long. He lost 13 pounds, and he looks weak to me.

Have you seen or talked to Roger lately or is that history? are you able to go to work? I am soooo glad it's Friday tomorrow, I  am finding I get so exhausted and I'm due for my B-12 shot like Yesterday! Saturdays are now my lazy day, I'm gonna stay in my pj's and just take it easy. Take care and I'll see you on FB, hugs, XOX

    Hi, Jennifer. Sending prayer's that your Grandma feels better.  How are you? Are you feeling better? I'm doing ok, just taking each day as it comes, I'm always in a flare, so bad days are normal, it's when things get worst those days are tough. You know how that is.

    I'm walking in the CCFC walk-a-thon, on Sunday. It's suppose to be a nice day, Yay. Last year it rained, so not to many came.

    Sending positive wishes and thoughts that you have many good days.  Hugs..
