Guest guest Posted September 11, 2003 Report Share Posted September 11, 2003 Lynn, I've been checking out the sites you sent slowly, one at a time. I've been finding some very good information. Thanks much!! You take care and I wish for your improving health! Jul Lilac_Rose@... Stoughton, WI 53589 -- Re: Good News Hey Jules, did you get a chance to check out any of the sites that I sent you? I hope it does help. Yeah, most of my docs here are with marshfield. Saw my ob/gyn today and he finally told me what my female problems are. vestibulitis. very common in those with immune disorders. I was so relieved. I have been going nuts and feel like I have to pee constantly. The only real effective cure is surgery though. I will keep you posted. Luv ya Good News Hi friends, Found out there is no welfare so to speak in Wisconsin but I do qualify for the " foodstamp " program. The woman that helped me was very nice and said it was awful that single sick people just fall thru the cracks. If I were pregnant or had kids I could get medicaid also!! What an incentive, huh? Anyway, they referred me to a program run by the Marshfield Clinic physicians. I contacted them today and for $16.50 a month they will take care of all my medical needs and medications, mental health and preventative dental. The only thing they don't cover is inpatient hospital, but I would qualify for charity if that were to happen. Best thing is all my doctors are covered, except my neurosurgeon, and I hope and pray I won't need him in the near future anyway. If I don't like the rheumy they have I can continue to go the MPS to as they will treat me without insurance also. So anyway, while I wait for Social Security I have a bit more peace of mind and that on the most painfree day I have ever had!!

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2003 Report Share Posted September 12, 2003 Boy, Lynn... That letter of yours keeps popping us, doesn't it? Or else, it's my computer that keeps putting it on and on.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2004 Report Share Posted January 14, 2004 Kelley-- My rheumy and I were talking a while back about the pain associated with those two... He did clinical trials for enbrel, Humira and kineret.. Any way, he said that the Humira doesn't hurt anywhere as bad as the Kineret.. Just thought you would like to hear that... Love, Kate Largo, FL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 14, 2004 Report Share Posted January 14, 2004 Oh Kate thank you soo much for that information. I am still waiting to start the Humira. We keep waiting everyday for the call from Denver to go up there. Gets kinda frustrating but I am trying not to let it, as we have been waiting since November for Humira to do this. Hope you are well.. Love Kelley in Colorado Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 Hi Carol: Public school cannot provide my son with Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) at any public school site, so I found a private school that can provide an appropriate education and school district pays the tuition and provides transportation. > Hi - > > I guess I came in on the end of this.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 Hi Carol: My son also has problems in general education PE, he was in the process of being evaluated for adaptive PE, but the evaluation was not completed by the time of our last IEP meeting. I don't know what state you are in, but on California's IEP form, there is four choices under the heading Physical Education. The first choice is General Education, which is for regular education students. The second choice is Modified General Education for regular educations students that need modified P.E. program for a specific legal and/or medical reason...504 plan students that have disability that impacts their ability to participate in General Education PE. The third choice is Special Designed PE for special education student who do not qualify for adaptive PE but cannont fully participate in general eduation PE. This was the choice that was marked on my son's IEP at our last meeting. The fourth choice is adaptive PE. Special Education students have to qualify to be able to participate. I did not recieve my son's assessment yet, so I am not sure what criteria is used to qualify. I believe it your child has to score low on fine and/or gross motor skills. If that is the case, my son will most likely not qualify for adaptive PE. My son's problem is with social communication and sensory overload. I believe the appropriate choice would be special designed PE program, which would need to be written into the IEP plan. My son's IEP and BSP plans will be revised in 30 days after he has transition into the new placement. Side Note: Getting a non-public school placement is very difficult. You need to document your legal reasona why current placement is inappropriate and exhaust efforts in attempting public school options before you can explore non-public school options in an IEP meeting. > That is very interesting. I had no idea that they had to pay for private school if they couldn't provide what our kids need. I'll keep that in mind. Guess that's one of those things the school boards don't tell you. > > I have a call in to our county office to find out about adaptive PE for my son. Not sure that is what he needs, but I want to find out what is available. > > Thanks for the info! > > Carol > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2004 Report Share Posted February 2, 2004 Congrats on your new boyfriend!!!! What's a proper boyfriend? I don't think that I've had one of those. Anyway, I'm happy for you. New love is so exciting. When I met my current boyfriend I was so happy that I didn't get sick for 2 years. It might be a fluke but I think I was too happy to get sick. Ok, that's all. Well one more thing, don't forget to use a condom. Just kidding sort of. _________________________________________________________________ Check out the coupons and bargains on MSN Offers! http://shopping.msn.com/softcontent/softcontent.aspx?scmId=1418 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2004 Report Share Posted February 4, 2004 Hi Thank you very much I said a " proper " boyfriend because my last relationship was basically just sex, there was no love or romance, no spending quality time together etc. The sex was good but not enough and that's why why we split up in the end. I made up so many excuses for him to make it look better to other people but I was fooling myself. Rob is completely different and I think he'll treat me like a princess. And don't worry, I have plenty of condoms stocked up Sue > Congrats on your new boyfriend!!!! What's a proper boyfriend? I don't think > that I've had one of those. Anyway, I'm happy for you.
