Had a great Christmas but....
 

I just wanted to say I had a great Christmas. We have traditions that we love.

Bill and I always spent the night at Susan's and Travis's and woke up Christmas morning to watch the little ones open presents. I grew up with that tradition and passed it on to Susan. Only we had 10 kids to crowd into the house back then.

The kids got me a lot of things. Too much really but they always do get carried away. Travis believes that the grownups should have a good Christmas too.

I hope all of you had a good Christmas. Not so much pain and a lot of family time.

Now comes the hard part. We are having Bill's dog put to sleep today. She has cancer. We found out yesterday.

I also got a call this morning from my neighbor that her sister died last night. Her sister was just one of the best people I ever knew. When I moved here I didn't know I lived next to Tracy's sister until we got to talking. I am going to try and go see her.

As for me, I go to the Dr. this morning for a UTI. I have had it for about 4 days. I think it comes from the IC that causes me to get them often. I am planning on having surgery in January for another female issue that we have decided can't go on no longer.

I don't know if we will turn the VNS back on today. We talked about doing it on a very low setting to see if I can have it on with no major side effects.

As far as the RSD, I do want to say that most of it is in remission. I am blessed for that and I do know that it can happen. Don't any of you give up on that. The right Dr., the right treatment, and you can get there.

As I said, I hope all of you had a great Christmas and I sure hope we all have a better NEW Year.

Love you all,
Ada
