Re: Connie R. - Thanks Glenda!

[Guest guest]

Glenda,

Thanks so much for your note. It's good to hear from you too!

My eye seems to be responding well to the 3 doses of IV pred I just

finished today. But 3000mg really makes me hyper and hungry!! Maybe

I'll get out the carpet shampooer tonight and try to work off some of

this excess energy. Or maybe not!! LOL

Maybe a juicy cheeseburger would be a better idea. ) Boy, am I

rambling. I can't wait until this stuff gets out of my system and I

crash so that I can get some sleep.

I hope all is well with you and your family. My family is doing just

fine. I see my granddaughter nearly every day and she is such a

joy! Two years old with loads of energy. Really fun to be around.

Sorry that I am going to miss all of the fun in Tulsa but I know

you'll all have a great time. Heidi is really working so hard to

make this such an extra special event for everyone. We are so lucky

to have her as a friend.

Take care everyone.

Luv and hugs,

Connie R

We will have to have a toast for you that night. Maybe we could all

toast at the same time. Even the ones that are not able to come.
