Guest guest Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 Beth had a wonderful time. They built 3 houses for some people. The "houses" were more like sheds we would put in the back yard, but they were better than the scrap wood & tarp with dirt floors that they moved out of! I'll try to post some pix.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 Doc called and didn't seem to have any fight to offer. Maybe too many lost battles with the big bucks. He says I can try for Procrit patient's assistance, but his experience is that they don't approve it if you have an insurance company that refuses to pay. We're gonna keep the tx meds the same & do labs again next Friday. I still have some room to drop more before it's life threatening. Reducing my meds, in my mind, isn't any much than taking me off altogether --just reduces my already low odds even farther, and we already know the vl goes back up if you can't finish tx.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2005 Report Share Posted January 27, 2005 Facts: I'm still very tired. I'm getting very pink skin for unknown reason, but no fever or anything. Just feel yucky physically--nothing specific, but emotionally fine. I'm not fogging out as often as when I first came off the rat poison. Cale is behaving. Beth is good as always. I got the side mirror on my car fixed where I ran into the garage the night Cale went missing. $250.

Guest guest Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Susie we can't help them because we love them.My twin brother is coming here for a visit Oct 3.He has a chemical inbalnce where he is by polor or something.He is very hard to live with and I tried to help him for years.Once everyone was gone he had to try to help himself.He is doing much better but still has bad bouts.I tell him the way it is.He has chased everyone out of his life.Me I call it the way I see it and he has to except me the way I am,because I like myself and no one is going to take that away cause it took to long to get to that point in my life.Let the professionals handle it.Your family member and the professional have to work it out and hopefully you will benefit by seeing him have a normal life again.I have been where you are.One of my daughters is a manic depressent and she treats it with alcohol.The only time I hear from her is when she is in trouble and wants something from me.She is 39.and still hasn't got help and I have told her what is going on with her.Love ya girl and I know how you feel,but now is the time to step back and pray.
