Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / November 2006OTP: Heard from Walt
"Here is an update you can share with ASA: We have been extremely busy of late. My son, Micah, leaves on his mission for our Church on the 29th and we are busy preparing him to go. He will be serving in the Eugene Oregon area. We are so incredibly proud of him. He has fought through so much to get to this point. Amanda, my daughter, is very busy at school even though she is still in a lot of pain from her muscular dystrophy. She is on the color guard for the marching band, the head sound tech for all school productions, and in all GT and honors classes. She continues to amaze me with her courage and tenacity. We are thankful that Wendy still has a job following the student unrest at Gallaudet. We aren't so sure how long it will last as at least one faction is demanding that the audiology program be shut down - they're the enemy, after all. Still, she loves what she is doing and is being promoted to Director of the program in January. We purchased a 30 year old home in August and have been busy trying to repair everything that needed repairing before winter hit. We keep discovering new things to do, so I am not sure it is a list that I will ever be able to say is complete. We had a flood Thursday following a severe storm and I tested my body clearing 3 inches of water from my basement. We love the home even with all of it's 70's styling and worn out mechanicals. It is single story, a perfect size, and in a fantastic neighborhood. We have wonderful neighbors. I have been dealing with a bad flare for several months now. I started Humira a month ago and it is starting to help. Right now my lower back, hands, and clavicle are all yelling at me constantly. It makes it impossible to get a decent night's sleep. But I remain hopeful that all will calm as the Humira kicks in. Anyway, that's my life at the moment. It should calm down a bit once Micah is off on his mission. Until then, like I keep saying, I can do anything with enough drugs!! Walt" DeeTee Thanks for sharing this, DeeTee! I was born and raised in Eugene, Oregon. I know for a fact that there is a strong, warm, lovely LDS community there. I hope Micah feels at home.:) Kelly C. > "Here is an update you can share with ASA: > [quoted text clipped - 37 lines] > > DeeTee thanks, deetee. its good to hear how walt and his family are doing and what. next time you hear from walt, tell him i waved and said "hi!"<smile> kate "Here is an update you can share with ASA: We have been extremely busy of late.

I've read at 'http://medical-health-care-information.com/Health-living/Back-pain/index.asp' that The spine is the central support system of the body. We only realise how much work our backs do when something goes wrong. A sedentary lifestyle, poor posture, being overweight, bad working practises and a high level of stress all contribute to back problems. I hope the above is of some help to you as well. > "Here is an update you can share with ASA: > [quoted text clipped - 37 lines] > > DeeTee > Dear DeeTee and Bob Taggart > I ran into your message quite accidentally while researching about > some details on 'back pain' and thought of sharing some of my > findings. I've read at http://spammers_delight.commercial You are the lowest, deceitfulest scum-of-the earth. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Topic in alt.fan.gene-scott Dear Philosopher I ran into your message quite accidentally while researching about some details on 'Stress' and thought of sharing some of my findings. I've read at -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Topic in sci.med.cardiology Dear Chung, your question about 'Diabetes' got me thinking. I know people personally who have suffered due to this but I guess not everyone would understand the challenges till faced with similar circumstances. Anyways, I did a bit of research and found an article which says Diabetes is a set of related diseases in which the body cannot regulate the amount of sugar (glucose) in the blood. In diabetes, glucose in the blood cannot move into cells, and it stays in the blood. This not only harms the cells that need the glucose for fuel, but also harms certain organs and tissues exposed to the high glucose levels. I found this article at http://spammers_delight.commercial -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Topic in Health care information Hi Everyone, there seems to be a new development in the field of Ovarian Cancer .

(Thinking how I can rip off more fools) I found this article at Maybe you would want to read more about it there.

I was reading about it on http://spammers_delight.commercial ' which says 'Stress happens. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ... I like long walks, especially when they are ... taken by Sherry and other spammers. I am so glad to hear that things are finally improving some for the Hanks family! Obviously, the job issues and Walt's flare remain problems, but it must ease their hearts so much to have Amanda and Micah doing well. May Humira soon prove to be Walt's miracle med.
