Helen, good morning, how are you feeling???You get the girls this weekend??It has been raining cat and dogs here, yesterday and appears to do the same today.Well, April is out of her bootie, yesterday she got it wet, I called the Pedi Ortho about how to dry it and the nurse said, oh it should have come off at two weeks, well, duh, he did not tell me that, nor was it wrote down, none of us heard it, so, she is in Nike Hi Tops and appears to be doing fine, I told her to call me if the ankle feels weak up in the day, we continue PT as before, activities are still restricted, until seen in two weeks.I sort of feel like a fool, but like my friend told me , who was also in thr room, not my fault, cannot know what they did not say.Talk to you soon.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2001 Report Share Posted December 30, 2001 Have no plans on going out... I am not up to that...In thirty-four years, we have gone out four times on new years, once to my brothers, and once to my nephews house, and twice to my in-laws... I am not the partying kind... My health hasn't allowed that in a long, long time...Plus like you said, Safer this way ) We will play (maybe) Upwards and at midnight toast the New Year with, Ross a coke, Me a cup of coffee ) my sinus cold is doing better ) Still have the runny nose, but head isn't as stuffy as it was...Girls as of last Wens. still had their sinuses and colds ( Ross and Unkie have the cold now also... M I L is doing Great !!! Medicare said she was doing well enough to be sent home as long as someone could care for her... She took 67 steps with her walker and helper... F I L takes care of her at home... This is something we never thought we'd see again... So we are very Thank-ful for this miracle...Dr's still do not know what happened to her...At one point we all thought she was dying...And then she started getting better... She doesn't remember any of the three weeks that she was out of it... She thought that Thanksgiving had just ended the day before, and here it was five days till Christmas, when she fully came back to us...) Right now it is 19* with a windchill of -7* . Brrrrrrrrrr!! {{{ Warm Hugs }}} Helen Helen, so any big plans for New Years Eve?? Going out staying in?? We are staying in, like we have done for the last numerous years. Safer that way.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2002 Report Share Posted March 7, 2002 Good Morning, Helen, How are you and Ross doing today?? It sounded as of your MIL did have a bad bladder infection of some kind, usually when the urine is that dark and pus, it is an infection. I cannot believe that they gave you no clues, at one point she was sick as a dog than bam they let her go. I do have my doubts with some of our medical professionals. I am sorry your girls are so sick again, they have been sick almost all winter, poor miserabe little girls. I just wish the court system would wake up and smell the roses and let them come and stay with Ross and you. Then they would get everything they needed plus some.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2002 Report Share Posted March 7, 2002 Yes, it just doesn't make sence to us as to how she was dismissed like she was...They are only giving her 3-5 years as it is to live, because of the polyp that is growing over the opening of her intestine they said lasy Dec. She is not strong enough for surgey and doing the surgery now is too risky to her, she might not make it through it... But it still doesn't seem right that they couldn't give them answers as to if the infection is gone that they scared them to death about... Yes, the girls are still sick... This is how it is every winter and he knows this... Tonight Bre threw up again and I told her she has to tell her dad and she said NO!!! I said sweety did you throw up today at all, besides now??? She said yes ( She said that she has been throwing up everyday this week... I said did dady or shannon know it??? She said yes, but she still had to go to school ( So I told her to tell her teacher tomorrow how sick she has been all week and all the throwing up she has been doing and she started crying and said NO!!! I CAN'T !!! I asked her why not??? They will call Daddy and he will have to take you to the Dr.... She's crying and said that they told her that she can not tell anyone that she is sick... If she does, they will take bankie and dolly away and she will never see them again ( This just makes me SO FURIOUS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They threaten them all the time... Is not this called mental abuse ??? How can ANYONE that is suppose to Love them and be the best for them, because they are the parent do such a thing to their own child ( Saedi said Mom, they will take them away... Last night they came in after we were in bed and took Cassandra's bankie and bear away from her and told her she will not get them back until she starts to get up in the morning and get ready on time for day care... is tired of having to wait around for her to get herself dressed and comb her hair and eat breakfast, because she is too slow...She is only FOUR years old !!!!!!!!!!!! Saedi said the only reason she had them now, (when we picked them up) because daddy didn't want us to know that he took them away for that reason ( Cassandra complains of headaches all the time now, she is 4... She sounds congested and has greenish yellow snot coming out... Bre is the same, plus all the vomitting and her peepee hurts ( She's 6 and is the one with protein and blood in her urine, which he hasn't kept her appointments for since they have been gone ( She was suppose to have her recheck last Nov...... She has had this since she was 2 years old... Saedi is just plain misserable ( Her sinus's have not let up all winter ( Her head hurts so much ( She doesn't get to take any of her medicine that she always took for them before... But she does sound like she is getting an upper infection right now ( I DON'T know what to do any more ( The tears just flow as my hands are tied and they beg us for help and I can't give it too them ( Something is wrong here...

I read where you guys are having a lot of wind and stuff this weeknd. Any snow?? It has gotten very windy here today, cool, too. We all are doing fine, Amber is feeling much better, nothing like the right meds and Dr. on your side. I wish I could share our good fortune with your girls. Their "dad" needs to be horse whipped for sure. Amber loves her job, she is a sacker at HEB, which is a big grocery chain here in Texas. She works four hours at a time, when she works, she is working the weekend, plus quite a bit next week, since they are on Spring Break. We will meet my best friend in Tues or Wed for lunch. April is doing quite well, just cannot believe the change in her from last year. I worked the last two nights and needless to say I will sleep like a baby tonite.LOL.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2002 Report Share Posted April 5, 2002 Thank-You So much for the beautiful picture !!! No, i have never seen the golden gate bridge and I know I never will ( Too far for me... I have always wanted to see the grand canyon and niagra falls... But I know I will never see them either... I am so frightened of heights now, that an open stairwell scares me ( I have to look at the wall to get up stairs, if it is all open, I will not go up it at all anymore... Getting into the swimming pool now is a Big challenge... I'm OK until I get by the edge and then I loose it ( I don't know how bad it is going to be this year, it gets worse each year ( I'm OK once I get into the water... My hands are hurting very bad, but then I have been using them a lot so I know what is causing it... The body pain is starting to get tolerable again ) The Plaquanil is starting to work Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyy !!! Ross still hurting bad in the knees ( How are you doing now ??? And Don ???

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2002 Report Share Posted May 2, 2002 Didn't get out of the forties today ( It's 41*F right now ( 5*c ) It's suppose to get up to the 70's ( 21*c ) by Sunday ) Now the winds are suppose to start in, which you know makes it colder... Yes, the plaquenil is helping... I still ache bad, but that is normal... When I got to the pains that were intolerable and could not handle them six weeks ago, I had the severe ones for three months before I cried Unkle and gave in and seen the doc... The Lupus is out of remission and in I'm in a bad Fibro flare, plus he said I have Polymyalgia... It was either the plaquanel or steroids and I still do not want to take steroids and blow up like a balloon ( So I have to put up with the plaquanel, but really, I would rather put up with the nausea, because it comes and GOES, Its a daily thing, but it doesn't stay forever like the pains do... I am always in pain, but have learned to live with it, till they become intolerable... So yes, to me it is very much worth it... They affect each person differently, but this is the way they do me... Working in the cold could very well have made it all worse ) Cold does not like us... You ought to sign up for the Call Wave, its free on line, you have to pay a small amount to your phone company though... I think mine is $1.89 a month, to me it is worth it, then I don't miss any calls coming in ) Just a thought... Take care of yourself and remember you are very much needed !!!
