Back from the beach, thanks and welcome to new members

[Guest guest]

Hey Y'all,

We got back on Saturday from my extended visit to the beach to see my

cousins. The first day I was there it got down to 48 degrees...darn, and the

following day was like the middle of winter! But the sun and heat finally

complied on the second day and we were all having such a wonderful time

being together again that I ended up staying an additional day, and then had

to stop over in ton to see my daughter, take care of some wedding

arrangements and bring her home with me for the weekend.

Thank you, Jac, Deanna, Chrissy and everyone else for their " well " wishes. I

did have such a bad spell the week before that feeling great for the family

reunion was even more of a surprise.....it was delightful not to have to have

pain interfere with our time together. It made me appreciate the visit even

more, and we had a wonderful time, regardless of the weather.

I'm trying to catch up on the messages and noticed all the new names I see

on the message board. Welcome, again, to all our new members! I hope

you'll find this wonderful group of people just as helpful and supportive as I

have over the last three years. Some of the names change as people come

and go, but the experiences and willingness to help others with their

pancreatitis problems remains constant, so I hope you'll experience this with

us.

I won't be able to be as active with the membership these next few months as

I normally have been, but I will be checking in periodically and still hope that

I'll be able to help anyone when I can, with their specific needs. The

pre-wedding social activities have begun, (Yikes!), and I've found that I'll

have

to be traveling to ton or Macon, Ga. several weekends during the next

few months. Additionally, my husband and I will be leaving town for our

annual visit to the Adirondacks this coming month, before my grandson Austin

arrives for the summer.

I'll still be here in spirit, if not in person, and will keep in touch as much

as I

can.

With love, hope and prayers,

Heidi
