Guest guest Posted August 24, 2003 Report Share Posted August 24, 2003 I have not had to deal with the Iron infusions, but I have a friend (another WLS person) who did have to do the infusions . It worked out well for her. Got her iron levels right back to where the should be. In fact, that may be my next step.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Darlene, Welcome back, I'm sorry your sore, don't over do it, I've been trying to check in at least 1-2 times a day, to keep the email flowing.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Darlene, I'm still in shock, I think over my dad.. he left us expecting his journey home, but we didn't expect it last Thursday night.. He was talking to us, and my mom came out fix her a sandwich and went back to check on him and he was gone.. within 10min.. He had endstage Parkinson's which is a very painful disease as it tightens the muscles,cartliage and joints.. he couldn't move he was so stiff and he didn't even ask for any pain meds the last couple of days.. He's gone home.. A journey we all have to make.. and he did it with grace, and splendor.. Thanks, P Hi everyone, I've been sick and in the hospital twice this last week, renal failure..

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 You are in my prayers. My Dad died 2 and a half years ago and there are days that it is hard to not have him here. Remember the good times as they will carry you through the bad. Remember too that you have to take care of yourself during this difficult time.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I'm so sorry about your father, and then to be so sick on top of it. I can not imagine what your going through. Please try to take care of yourself, I know it is close to impossible right now, but you are loved and needed no matter what shape your in.
