Hi :

I'm happy to know there are other poets on this

list, and maybe a few aspiring writers? You can

tell when I'm really bored when I start with the

poetry stuff!

I too write books. My first ebook will be epublished

this summer. There is a second one following close

behind. I love to write and that is what I do when

I'm totally stressed out.

Hope you are enjoying a great holiday weekend.

God Bless, Bonnie

Hi ,

A quick hello and to say, my knees makes tons of noise. It's the best in the

middle of the night when I get up to pee, both knees crunch while my hips

pop. Try walking through the library with that noise! It's embarrassing!

I hope you are doing well. I am sure you've told the group, but I'm behind

in emails.

Love, Rainy

Just wanted to let everyone know what 's GI dr said yesterday. There is

possible Chrons Disease. is having a test down tomorrow morning. He

can't eat or drink after midnight and has to drink that dye and they will do

the xray. At this point the dr doesn't think will need the scope

because he is pretty sure what the problem is going along with the Acid

Reflux. Everyone keep your fingers crossed and say a prayer for jesse.

thanks,

awww, so sorry to read this! Is he still taking the growth hormones?

Perhaps his symptoms

are because of them. Just a thought.

Maybe he can get Remicade then? Kill two birds with one stone, assuming it

is crohn's. Since he has responded so well to the Enbrel, he probably would

to Remicade. Of course, the insurance part might be a problem? I also have a

friend with crohn's. We had a scare at one time a few years ago. She got

really thin bcs she couldn't eat and was in the hospital for a bit. But she

is great now just has to really watch what she eats.

Kathy,

I just told that your son met Mick Foley. loves Mick Foley. He

was really upset when he got fired and we had to explain that it was all in

the script. He understands now.

My kids would love to meet the WWF wrestlers. We watch it every monday and

thursday sometimes on sunda and every PPV. My favorite is Jeff Hardy. He is

just so cute. lol

Hi Amy, EFA might actually reduce patelets aggregation in the blood, (so

called " thinner " blood) which could explain tha fact that it may take more

to coagulate. This is why EFA are recommended for heart and colestorol

problems, too. You can check at :

http://www.oilofpisces.com/bloodcoagulation.html

Still, ProEfa dosage is low, so it may be a coicidence. You can ask your

pediatrician. The results you otherwise got are very good, so it is a shame

to stop. Or, you can stop for a couple af weeks, and then see. I remember

than children who had to have an operation, had to stop taking EFA for a

couple of weeks before and after the operation for this reason.

Good luck
