Everyone

[Guest guest]

Don, thank you for the laughs. Bill, thank you for the cards.

All bile duct discussors, thank you for going there for our amuse-

ment. We know it is not funny, but your gift to us.

There are days when I feel so full of righteous indignation, as I

told a coworker today, before I ever read your post, . As Geri

phrased it, I feel absolute outrage on your behalf. Just keep it to-

gether girlfriend until it finally connects. It is tough living alone

in this situation, but at least you have one thing to be grateful for-

your sister. Mine committed suicide in 1984, and I will never be the

same. But this is not about me.

Luanne, how are you, now that your week is winding down? You, Ty, your mom -

from whence commeth your strength, if not God?

I don't know what I would do or where I would be without this group. I thank

all involved for the Sarna and Respite info, I can't get

intohttp://medhlp.netusa.net/per16/hepatitis/Faq.html, nor get to the right

place using your alternate suggestion, , I get into the Med Help

International and don't know what to do next.

Sorry for the long posts, I get your email at work, but no time to tune in;

at home only digests available, and by the time I go thru those, I am drained.

Got to figure out a better way.

Thanks all for your pix, and please, let there be more forthcoming. I have a

ridiculous and trivial question for the women: if I try to " de-hair " my legs

in any way I know, I am in an agony of rash and itching for a week. Does

anyone have any suggestions?

J - Ambien truly is wonderful - how much have you tried at bedtime?

Maybe you just need to up the dose slightly.

I have been feverish and achy for three days, until today. Flu wouldn't dare,

would it? After I was so good and got a shot? Better today, tho' and now am

scheduled for a pneumonia shot on the 16th - my hepatologist recommends I have

that too, so I imagine we all should.

Geri, even if what you write is " only " stream-of-consciousness, I always find

it of great interest. Every time you express our collective indignation so

articulately, even if you call yourself apolitical, your posts could be

powerful messages if sent to Representatives and Senators. If they don't

know, who has more of a vested interest in making them know than we do?

Not to whine, but right now I feel exhausted beyond exhaustion, if that means

anything to anyone. I continue to work full time, and as Sr. Financial

Analyst at annual corporate budget time, I have been working nonstop, almost,

for 3 weeks. No, they are not giving me raises anymore, but I guess I have

to be grateful to still have my job. No one appreciates or understands the

supperhuman effort it takes on my part. I just hope I can carry it off a while

longer. Thanks for being here, all. I take away much more than I give.

Thanks, sleep well, peace...God bless...
