When I published the photo of my leg in cast, when Beckham had foot
problems, people like Heather and Alison asked why I hadn't shown a
full Picture of myself? I came across this site recently and
congratulated myself that I never did!.....

Our daughter, Brenda, age 40 has suffered a silent heart attack.  She
had her physical on Friday and it showed up on the heart test.  The
doctor did not hospitalize her, she is seeing a cardio next week to
determine damage.  She is in CA and it is so hard for Jer and I not to

We finally managed to get together for lunch today. And me without a
camera. We rattled on until she came to her senses and remember to check
the time. She needed to return to meet kids. Worked well for me as John
is out of town for two days and I am on for cooking dinner. So had ...

When you are at your swimming pools, do you find your self extra
thirsty? I have been twice to my new gym and into their pool to jog in
the deep end. I find myself drinking cup after cup of water after I get
out. Not a bad thing but odd.

Hey all....I'm on my third week on Enbrel for Psoriac and Rheumatoid
Arthritis (the Derm prescribed it primarily for the PA)....the PA seems  to

run!....not like a rabbit mind you but still run without hating ...

Have any of you RA patients developed IPF  (Interstitial Pulmonary

your condition now?

Am trying to prepare a gift for a friend's daughter's bat mitzvah. It's the
collar to a prayer shawl. I want to embroider (crewel) a Hebrew phrase onto
some cloth (black). Haven't figured out how to get the pattern onto the
cloth.

Just curious, and maybe a little concerned, about a swollen lymph node
I've had on the right side of my neck for two or three months (from
what I remember).  The part that scares me is it is firm/hard, fixed
and is not tender - not a good thing (indicative of cancer) but trying

The Gimpfest was a TOTAL BLAST! Duckie is definitely the hostess with the
mostest! It was a small, but wild bunch this year.

Saw a new RD today and she told me I don't have RA/PA. So I guess I'm

We're rebuilding a fence at my parents. I was being a *very* good girl and
sitting on a swing, supervising. I asked my neice to push me on the swing (rope
and baord suspended from a tree branch) I was going *very* high when the rope
snapped! I flew backwards through the air and ...

Made it back on Wednesday night, actually.  I'm still playing catch-up
with all my real life stuff now.  Had one very minor mechanical failure with
the wheelchair.  I lost a locknut off the wheel brake mechanism.  That meant
I had to tighten it up every morninng to make sure the ...

Has anyone heard from Joe Nicholson since he visited Squirley Jo?  I was
sure he would be home from his trip long before now.   And email to him is
still bouncing.
Maybe one of you who can hear has his number and could give him a call?
