Think I should introduce myself. I lurk because I'm too shy to post. Bit about me? I'm 63, female, living in the UK. I'm separated (hubby couldn't cope with my illnesses) I suffer from Asthma, Menieres Disease, and was diagnosed with RA this January. Apart from inhalers for asthma, medication for the menieres, I'm taking MTX (15mg once a week) and Folic Acid. (5mg once a week) I go to a Medical Day Hospital every fortnight for blood tests etc, I've had two prednisone injections of 120mg since being diagnosed with RA, my Rheumatologist also recommended I take Co- Codamol for the pain. I'm glad I found ASA, ASA is such a caring group. I have gleaned lots of info from you all. So many thanks for that. My heart and prayers go out to all that are going through such trying times of late. Sandy (going back to lurk mode) Sandy, once you've stuck your head out of the bushes, you're just not allowed to hide any longer! So glad you posted, but come back and share with us. We're a pretty nice group of people and some are very knowledgable (I'm really not one of those). But we would really be glad to welcome you all the time.

You got another lurker out from behind the bushes. Come and join us in the hot tub more often Sandy. Welcome! We are a caring group. Like any family we have our squabbles, our disagreements and our black sheep. We also have the odd **** laden cousin who pops in to give us extra medical advice that none of us really need. (some of the advice is a little dangerous if taken in the wrong way.) In general though this really is a support group. So thanks for introducing yourself. I am in Canada, 49 years old going onto 102 in joint years, have RA, 2 children, a husband who really should have left me with all the problems this disease has caused but hasn't thank goodness. I am waiting for another treatment to begin but must admit it is taking way too long! Must start nagging them again next week. Take care and welcome Kelly in BC, Canada >> Hi Sandy, >> can you send me your address so that i can get your bracelet off/ [quoted text clipped - 29 lines] > > Sandy (going back to lurk mode) > Wow - good work M!

But you failed to warn her about the chocolate thieves. And the chain gang cleaning the sandbox. ... Take a chance on living life to the fullest before leaving this Earth! > > Wow - good work M! You got another lurker out from behind the bushes. Clearly, I have been neglecting my duties as ASA sandbox gardener - I will trim the bushes right away & see how many other lurkers there are hiding in there! Welcome, Sandy! Glad you decided to post. We are always here for you if you need us. Shannon/Plantmistress >>> Wow - good work M! You got another lurker out from behind the bushes. > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > Shannon/Plantmistress ROFL. This post made me giggle like a mad woman! -- Ashley ========= ~~AN. I agree with Ashley Shannon, I was laughing about that too. Great sense of humor you have and witty too. ;-)  SignatureLove and Hugs to all Jo the squirrely one > >>>> Wow - good work M!

You got another lurker out from behind the bushes. >> [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > -- Ashley LOLOL,,, All those people playing in the sand every now and then. It is the people that let their cats play in there while they mooch a free drink at the bar and shoot the breeze and no one cleaning up the mess. It is a real blessing for Kelly to solve the problem. I think the reason her garden always does better than anyone else is the fertilizer she uses and she gets that for freeeee. SomBodyElse Welcome Sandy!!! So glad you decided to unlurk and jump in. As everyone has already said, we are a loving family. Occassionally we have our little disagreements, but we always make up and continue to support one another. We have times where we pull back and don't post as often, but then when we reappear, it always as if we never left. It truly is an amazing family/group. Hope you jump in more often and participate in the love and sharing!!! BTW, I am the keeper of all the dark chocolate, spice drops, spice jelly beans, and good-n-plenty's, so hand over any of those items and I promise to keep them nice and safe!!! <beg> Hugs, Donna G. . . . ANGELS EXIST, but some times, since they don't all have wings, we call them FRIENDS...... Hi Sandy, let me be the first to say welcome to ASA. I am looking for the link to the UK group in the archives. Will post it as soon as I get there. It is a great group but we would love it if you could stick around here as well. melinda Uhuh Sandy, you can't go back into hiding. You are now part of the family. You have to stay around and put in some posts every once in awhile now. ;-) I am sorry that your hubby coulden't cope with your illnesses. that is sad. I feel for you, you have alot going on. You hang in there and stay around ok. We are glad you found us too. It is a nice, caring, supportive group. We love to meet new people, but sorry for the reason we have to meet new people. I am glad you got lots of info from the group. That is what we are here for, to help others who are struggling down this path too. Really you don't have to go back to lurking. We don't bite, well much anyways. We might miss when we are trying to taste your chocolate and you have your head turned. But other than that we really don't bite. ;-) Glad to see you hear and a big ole, ASA welcome to you. SignatureLove and Hugs to all Jo the squirrely one > Think I should introduce myself. > [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > > Sandy (going back to lurk mode) welcome, Sandy! I've been in a non-computer sort of mood this week and haven't been replying much. Blend that with an 11 pound cat who's been clingy much of the week and typing has really been an issue! Please, don't let shyness keep you from posting. Remember, after all, we can't see you and only know what you tell us, but someone here has probably been through just about anything you have. I started out rather shy about posting and rarely did so for a couple of years, but now I am blessed with many friends from this group!
