Dear Karma:

I just came back from my trip. The enema bags arrived just a few minutes before going to the airport! Thank you so much for sending them. I am sure your business is going to flourish (if not already doing so) because you are a true healer: very loving and compassionate. Many thanks again and have a wonderful week!

Christel,

It is on this page:

It isn't a close up of it. Let the picture load, it is in the display with the turquoise on either side of it. It is hanging on three posts and draped like a drying fire hose. I will look for close-up pictures of tapeworms for you. This one is not a close-up, just a really long one that is intact and on display.

in God, in the Christian sense of God, then you must believe He put you here

for a reason....but I don't believe it was to punish you and make you

suffer. No God worthy of the name deliberately sets out to make His

creations suffer....that just happen because our bodies aren't perfect.

According to my Sunday School teacher, in days long past, God makes our

souls perfect, not our bodies.

And before you decide to just " check out " early and avoid the pain.....how

will you face your Creator with your days all unused? You went to law schoo

l? How would you explain to your Creator that you wasted the brains he gave

you?

What could you do with that brain, and all that knowledge, to help others

who also suffer pain and misery? Did you consider that your Creator may

have put you where you are, with your brains and skills, because others

might need you?

No, it's not fair......but " life " is not spelled f-a-i-r, is it? What is it

that you would most like to do for the rest of your life? Work on

answering that, and you may find a satisfactory life.....not perfect....and

maybe not easy....but satisfying.....

Dear New- Having RA for 13 years now and in a bad flare I myself wonder about Karma. Was it my destiny to suffer and live like this in pain and with such fatigue. I took everything for granted. I lived frivilously and selfishly because I never suspected at 33 life as I knew it would end and a huge STOP sign would be placed in front of me. After wasting a year in bed going from Dr. to Dr. and being told it was all in my head, My RA popped up and they were treating me for lupus at the time. I realized that I didnt have a choice here. This was a glitch in my Genetic code and a think related to my weak immune system. My mother was always sick though she never had RA, I have been through everything she passed onto me. I didnt choose this to happen to me and I was a good person, always kind to people and animals. I was also spoiled and was wasting my life with all the usual nothings healthy people fill their lives with. Not so anymore. I learned I was a fighter. I fight this disease every day. I am losing ground severely lately. My disease is just too aggressive. Still I find quality of life in the quiet thoughtful intelligence of my mind. When your body degrades, your mind begins to compensate. I learned what true compassion and unconditional love meant. I am one of the " broken " people now and not many understand that. People complain about things from a knot in their hair to a broken car vanity mirror or what someone said to another. The veil has been lifted from my eyes and my mind enough to see who I am and what I was meant to do. To learn what my Disease teaches me and pass that humility and wisdom onto others. I share my experience with everyone I can and help enrich their lives by making them see what really matters. How to really appreciate every day, not merely live it. It is your destiny to suffer but in your suffering you have reached a state of grace and earned the right to have life conform to you now. Its a very powerful thing and gives me so much strength on bad days like these. Sometimes I welcome unconciousness just to escape from my body for a while and in the coming day I find new resolve in listening to a bird sing or the smell of freshly cut grass. What time is given to me here on earth is a living hell some days but also a great blessing by surrounding myself with family and friends who love me. Your mind is beset with emotional pain and your body is plagued with disease and they are both very tired. You cant see beyond those things right now, but do try. You have a very special place in life where most people fear to tread. You have great courage and a strong will. This disease wants you to give in and give up. It is a parasite feeding on you as its host. It is designed to make you despair. I wont let a disease tell me what kind of person I am or make me give up according to its time table. I have to find a balance or synergy with my parasite. I listen to my body and do the best I can. Ice packs or pain pills or a visit to the Doctor. Thats my life right now. Maybe it will get worse, or maybe it will get better. I have to hope for the later. A better and brighter day will come, I have just hit a bad patch but I have to believe it will get better. That is my choice, and mine alone. Keep your chin UP. Deborah

In june I had to have my gall bladder removed and I finally thought I was done. How much can one person take?Not to mention that in March and April my mom...my best friend...went

into a coma because she just stopped breathing. They did not think for the longest time that she would ever come off. Thankfully she did.Then this past November I went to the ER for a migraine. The IV left me with a systemic staph infection that was MRSA. I had to have surgery on my hand to save it.Since November I have known that something has just not been right with my health. Now I know what it is...RA. I am told that it has been caused my the MRSA. So I went from a migraine to MRSA and now RA on top of my Startle Disease.How much can one person take? What on God's Green Earth did I EVER do to deserve all the suffering I have gone through? I just cannot figure it out and am tired of trying.I give. UNCLE for Christ's sake! I am sorry but my shoulders are just not this big! Do you think all of those butterflies were once where I am now?Please just let this end and let me be a butterfly!

Bless your heart, you are so young to go through this. I know that this seems horrible, life I mean, but you have got to stop and smell the roses sweetheart.

RA is a horrible disease and it seems to spin off several other diseases.Since being dxd with ra I have developed diabetes, sjogren's syndrome, degenerative spine disease, osteoporosis, and when I go to my appt on Fri., they are going to check me for ms. I also had to go to an allergist and found out that I am extremely allergic to my dog!!! I think that things happen in cycles. 6 years ago my 16 mnth old grandaughter passed away, then exactly 1 year later, my mother was mowing her yard, and just died. She had lupus. Then, 1 yr later, my best friend committed suicide.

Baby, what I am trying to tell you is it's just life. Some just have it a little rougher than some. I find that prayer helps to calm me, and to accept what I am going through. I just look around me and always see that there are people alot less fortunate in this world. It is then, I realize that I have alot to be thankful for.

Hang in there kiddo, this group is the best thing that has happened to me since ra.

Hugs from Ok., Gloria
