Worry looks around,

Sorry looks back,

Faith looks up.

Peggy, Bruce.....

This is such a comforting post to Peggy (all of us) Bruce.

I have a question about prednisone.. ..

I've been on a short term use for tendonitis. Didn't help it much but I feel sooo good. It must be the prednisone.

I know, it's the best of drugs and the worst of drugs and you and I feel about the same Peggy. However, I'm wondering if I stayed on a low dose of prednisone would it eventually accumulate in the body and then I'd flop over to the "worst of prednisone"?

I know, I will talk to the doc about it (Friday) but wanted to go straight to the ones 'who know'. lol

Also: Our name has finally come up for Sect 8. I am so excited I'm hyperventilating! Now we can move closer to Lysa and still have our rent subsidized.

You know by now that due to our tremendously high medical bills we no longer can pay market rent for an apt. We've been waiting about 3-4 years. Thank God.

I called the two places that we left apps. at and they both have vacancies.

Now to decide how to hold an apt we may want....that stuff you just went through Bruce.

Hugs to all.
