Guest guest Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Hi Corrine: I used to design and make jewelry myself before the RA hit, and my hands became too painful to continue it. I really miss that, it was my creative outlet for a few years when I worked with a friend in her business. I hope that you are able to continue with your jewelry making for longer than I did. I always pray for the people in this group nightly, and I will be putting in an extra prayer for you that the biopsy is negative. I just found out yesterday that a friend of mine has breast cancer, and I pray that you will be okay.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2006 Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 Hi Kathe Thanks for your email. I sure do hope my biopsy comes back negative..... I just love making jewellry. My friends love it also because I give away lots to them. *S*. So far my hands are ok....Now there are times when I take a break to put them in the hot wax....(that sure do feel good) Hope you have a great day and thanks again for your email.
