Good morning all,

thanks all for the advice sisters, moms and all !!! hugsss

Sandy hugssssssssssss and hey evening in the regular hospital is when all seem worse. I recall my dad, in day he would seem like wow recover soon to come home, then evening he seemed LOST! good luck she will be home soon with you I feel!!

Well yes I called neuro, told nurse about the same feelings and that I do not think my body can take it... she said she would talk to him and call back. Her message back was to yes stop taking it, wait a week or two then call them, to talk over any other ideas he might have.

My focus, since I hate meds anyhow, is to do all I can physically and nutritionally to help the body too. Yoga and stretching, the massage when I can.. and the meds I am on. I will call them in two weeks.

hugss and thanks again all, hugsss,sarah

Getting ready to teach my class and then leaving at 11:00 on weekend shopping trip with friends. Hope you all have a good weekend!

Hi All ..

thanks for the hugs and prayers ... I'll need to take a raincheck :rain:.... I was TOLD it was the biopsy appointment ... but, it was only the consultation ....:Doh:

this is my 5th doctor I've seen now - with new issues .. he wants some blood, too (imagine that!) ... LOL

UPDATE: the REAL procedure is on Wednesday, Nov 25 at 830am ... and should be done at 1230-1p ... I have to register, get ready, blood drawn, Ultrasound to mark out where my liver is, then the procedure at 1030 ... w/anethesia ... then biopsy and stomache scoped ... then sleep - and done!

thanks for listening ...:Bow:

Vonn, still praying for ya hun. :hug::hug:

Well the publishing consultant was a bit of an overglorified salesperson, lol. :rolleyes: Still wasn't a total waste and got some good advice. Thinking of doing the "pride on the line" thing and contacting a couple of agencies. A few that I really wouldn't mind working with is looking for newbies, so feel like doing that first. If that fails, I'll take the tiger by the tail and self publish.

Now if I can only remember how to do a synopsis. It's tougher squishing a story to about 5 pages. :rolleyes:

The day's been blah so far. Woke up at 9, wandered out to my living room, and the next thing I knew it was almost noon. :eek: Been in uber pain, particularly the hands which has made getting stuff done difficult. Got to put off my painting until later.

Take care everyone. :grouphug::grouphug:

Just wanted to wish everyone a wonderful weekend.
:hug::grouphug:

I thought I had escaped the flu but think I am coming down with it now.:(
We have had the flu in our house since the week BEFORE Halloween.:(
Im so "sick of it", literally.

Im going to bed. Love to you all!:grouphug:

sorry Sox hope you feel better soon!! hugss

thanks Moo, hugss

hugss all, worked, resting then going to the movies with hubby tonight. hugss,sarah

Aw, Sox, I'm sorry you're feeling icky. :( I hope it's not the full blown flu.

Vonn, I'm sorry you have to wait even longer to get the biopsy done. What are they looking for? It sounds like a fairly invasive procedure. I hope everything goes well for you. I imagine you'll need someone to give you a ride.

Not doing much today. Just getting a few things done for the garage sale. I've done about all I can do till it's time to set up. I still have to get the 8 ft. tables but that's the last thing.

DS is going to a friends tonight at UGA in Athens so I'll have another Friday night by myself. I'm going to watch The Wizard of Oz!! :D It comes on TBS tonight. I love that movie!

Everyone have a good weekend! :grouphug:

Looks like we will need to make arrangements for mom to be moved to the nursing facility in Fayetteville where my grandma and all the other sisters went. She is insisting on being there because she "knows" people there. She hates the place she's in and maybe if we go ahead and move her she will feel better and be less stressed. We'll talk to them on Monday and see what we can do. I don't care for the place in Fayetteville but at this point mom needs to not be so stressed and out of her element. Thanks for the prayers. She is getting better but her short term memory is shot for sure. She didn't remember talking to me earlier. If she is less stressed maybe she'll come back a little.

Sox, hope you feel better soon and the flu doesn't last long. :hug:

Kitty, I love the Wizard of Oz!

Vonn, Jim is still smiling from your beautiful lap quilt. :hug: That's right, our sweet Vonn made him a Chicago Bears lap blanket and he loves loves loves it!

Sarah, what are you going to see? I'm thinking 2012 looks good. Might have to squeeze some time in to see it. Thanks for the info on your dad. We've always teased mom she has sun-downers. When the sun goes down, she goes down.

Jenn, hope your feeling better soon. :hug:

Moo, thanks for the prayers and well wishes for mom. :hug:

Wiz, any job prospects?

Gotta go pick up my cat, he's being released!

Everyone :grouphug: Don't know what I'd do without all of you. :hug:

Morning all! So mom has kind of forgot about going to her home town. She forgot we talked about it. She brings it up but doesn't understand why. That's the short term memory thing so we'll proabably just leave her where she is since she has only two weeks left before she sees the neuro on the 30th. We'll see what he says first and move from there. I need to know if he thinks she can live with someone or needs 24 hour care. Because I care for Jim I have to know if she's a flight risk. Anyway, one day at a time right?

Hope everyone is having a good weekend. I'm going to pull my xmas lights and start checking them today. It's a nice day to do that and try to get into some mood for the holidays. :hug:
