Hi everyone,
I have not posted in a while... I have continued to be in and out of flares.
My long, drawn out winter virus is apparently gone, so I have been able to
start back on chemotherapy, and to reduce my pred just a bit. Today I am
back to 10 mg, which is where I started a few months ago before I had this
last flare.
Good news is that I am not as depressed as I was, and I seem to be getting
over the horrible migraines which were my major symptom. I continue to do
exercise and weight training as my body will tolerate it. that's been
working out well, too.
I hope everyone of you is having a good start to your new year. find
something to lift your spirits. I just found little white flowers growing
in my garden. I dont know what they are, but I am glad they are there!
Love to you all,
Mair

down.
Do hope this year is full of good thoughts for you !

do snowdrops grow where there is no snow? They have straight blade-like
leaves, and white flowers that are just above the ground...

Can't tell at present - we've got about 5" of snow, and whatever grew is
now inaccessible.

yup they sure do!
they are one of our first signs that warmer weather is on the way whether or
not we have had a snowfall.
they are an annual occurrence regardless, so there you go!

Funny, I have two little daffodils that were the "first flowers of spring"
in my garden. they have been hanging on for about two weeks, but they are
looking prettty raunchy now...

Hi Mair, glad things going better.
Days getting longer, sometimes sun melts the snow so I don't have to shovel.
Cat goes out in snow (that's new !) to find hare or eat grass. LOL
She gets grass stuck between front tooth. One day she came in with a long grass
sticking out of her mouth.
I shovel snow so some of the grass is visible for her to find and eat.
She gets ticked at me, if I don't play or take her eat, then she chews my bangs
(and swallows).. What a looney-cat.
Not long now hopefully summer.
No flowers here, but that's ok
