Kitty: I hope I didn't come across as complaining!!! I am grateful things were not worse, are not worse. I realize everyday this just makes me grateful for life, cause there are those who get in an accident and become an invalid without the forthought or planning for it. Heck it can still happen to any of us. I didn't think I had anything wrong, so my choice was just that... nothing. I was SHOCKED when "The mri was normal" did not come from my neuro's mouth. I am sure, had I been in your position, I would have breathed a HUGE sigh of relief.

I was just saying, I can't believe it was this... that makes me face all the things I hate!! Kinda the way Snoopy took it!

A friend gave me a card after I told her about this. On the outside, it shows a cat throwing its head in the air, seemingly laughing, saying, "Stupid dog fell in the toilet. Bwahahahaha!!!" On the inside it says, "Take comfort that someone is having a worse day than you." It cracked me up. Kinda like figuring out this disease is making me face the things I hate.

FinLady: There was about 4 times I almost hit that panic button. I just took a few deep breaths and was able to make it through. One time I panicked is when everything went quiet. I thought, "OMG, I am STUCK IN HERE and THEY WENT TO LUNCH!!!!" LOL, like that would actually happen, but it was still a thought I had. Just about the time I talked myself into screaming, the MRI started making the noises again!!!

Snoopy!! I think you are right. Once again, I will turn this into a caretaking ability. I swear, I am not living if I am not helping someone. So, why have you lst trust in people. Have you found they have not been there for you? Ack, I hope that is not the case. I don't have many friends I do trust. If I lose them, I won't have anyone...LOL

Have a great day everyone!
