Guest guest Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 Betty, did you have the reading?? How did it go? Love Lana 0 :-) back from vacation Hello all Just wanted to say a hello and to let everyone know I have been in Florida on holidays and just returned to find my mailbox overflowing so before I go through all of my emails I just wanted to say I'm back and hope everyone is better to those who haven't been well. I had a relatively good time...it sure was hard to go knowing our Danny wouldn't be with us. I also wanted to say to those who have asked...my older son is being tested for VEDS on May 21st...they will extract the DNA here in Canada and then send it to Seattle. Hopefully it won't take to long. Thats my next big worry. When I returned to our house yesterday, my friend who was looking after our place told me there were a bouquet of roses on my porch. I read the card: For Betty....in loving memory of Danny, Happy Mothers Day. It was not signed. I found it very touching and of course it did make me cry, but it made me also happy to know there are still lots of caring & thoughful people out there. I survived our first vacation after our son's death & being diagnosed with VEDS. I have to say I was a little nervous to do things, as we took in alot of things such as Disney World, Universal, Kennedy Space Center...just to name a few. After my initial fears I just trusted my faith and said whatever will be will be and proceeded to try and have a good time with my husband and other son. I will write again later because as always I have a few questions I know someone will be able to help. Thanks for listening. Betty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 Betty: Welcome home! ! So glad to hear you were able to face your fears re activity etc. I suspect you have made a big step. Congratulations! Sometimes these fears of what might happen can loom so large and prevent us from participating in the life we do have. I have always found a holiday, even an overnight of pleasant day out so very helpful in facing the challenges of another day. I can be too easy to allow the fear to overwhelm one particularly when each day can sometimes bring an unknown.

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2005 Report Share Posted July 6, 2005 Welcome back Colleen! Missed ya. Laurie __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 Hi all! I'm back from my very relaxing vacation to the Oregon and Washington Coast. First of all, I have to say that my plane ride was an absolute joy! I sat in the middle seat (because my son wanted the window) and my hips (and other parts of me) did not even hang over into the soul sitting next to me on the other side. Woo-hoo! We all also went horseback riding on the beach while in Long Beach, WA. The kids had a great time but I think I had the best time of all. I didn't even feel too sorry for Brassy (my horse and new Mom). I could of ridden all day, although my hind quarters where killing me the next day. I was quite disappointed when I got on the scale today and after 10 days of no weighing, I was only down 1 pound. How the heck is that possible?!?!? Yes...I was on vacation and I may have eaten a tiny bit more but actually I'd say I probably ate less because I was out of my routine. I brought my protein shakes with me and I had one for breakfast every morning (like I normally do) and then I had small bits for lunch and for dinner. Hmmmm....very disappointing. I have been on a 5 pound weight loss per week average since surgery. Boo- hoo! In 10 days, there were lots of posts so....I don't think I'll get through all of them. If I missed any new members...WELCOME. If I missed surgery dates...CONGRATULATIONS. If I missed anyone's heartache and sorrow...MY HEART AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU.
