Cute Story

[Guest guest]

I have a cute story to share that has nothing to do with JRA but sometimes we

just need to smile, so I thought I'd share it with the group.

We went to eat last night at a seafood place and the kids where eating catfish,

I was eating crab legs and dad was having a little bit of everything. Well in

that little bit of everything was crawfish, (Which I think personally look like

big bugs). Our 3 year old, , fell in love with the crawfish, holding it

and petting it for about 30 minutes, I this point I must remind you that its

already dead and cooked. When it came time for Daddy to eat her new friend,

that she had named by this time, Freddie the daddy of the crawfish, she wasn't

going to allow that, nor was he going to eat Maggie, Clare, or Bubba, the mommy,

the sister and the poor little brother with the broken arm. She actually

started crying, she was really fond of this crawfish family. So after much

discussion and by that time most of the other people eating have figured out

what was going on she decided that Freddie and his family should come back to

our house and live in the compost pile. So the waiter got

us a little 'house' for her family and the waiter and most of the other

customers said their goodbyes to Freddie and off the crawfish family went to our

house.

They are all resting nicely now in their new home in the compost pile behind our

house, snug as little bugs.

ANd no crawfish where harmed in the making of this story.

Just thought I'd share

She went from 9.9 on Hemoglobin to 9.1. We started her on a iron supplement

last month. She did have a flare this month. The Rheumy stated " it isn't

critical yet " - any advise or past experience with this from you all would be

helpful. Sandi, Ken, Hunter (6 Systemic)
