Guest guest Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 Hello Joy In reference to your comment: When did you say you got symptoms?Of course, I moved many places since then and have lived all over....but I have been sick since living down ther. Hmmm? Oh I rather doubt living on the coast had anything to do with our A, but who knows. I left there in 1963 and didn't get the symptoms of A until 35 years later. But, listen to this.....I noticed the first symptoms while visiting my sister-in-law and nephew in Coeur d Alene, Idaho, which is just a few miles from Spokane, WA. LOL Maybe someday they will find the cause. Until then we will keep looking and wondering. Hugs, Maggie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 Hello vip@..., In reference to your comment: Maggie, did your sister-in-law's house have well water by any chance?? Martha, I really don't know, but I can find out. I did drink well water as a child. Maggie AL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 Maggie, My Dad still misses the shrimp po'boys he used to get there. I went 2 years to the University of Southern Mississippi. I used to be a lifeguard at the Wavepool at the State Park. Then, when my parents retired, they never wanted to be THAT hot again and built a log house on a lake in Northern Michigan (UP). They were 2 miles by snowmobile to their mailbox in the winter. Then my dad clogged one of his arteries and so they moved to a place down here near Detroit (in the " real world " ). Their fantasy retirement is over....but as with dealing with all losses (including living with A), life does go on and you find joys in other things. When most kids grow-up and buy cars....I put my savings into a Hobie Cat catamaran sailboat....and I kept it on the beach in Long Beach. I have fond memories of sailing every afternoon after school. We love a little place in Alabama that serves up barbecue pulled pork sandwhiches on our drive to Southern Florida every spring. I sure hope those people down there can pull their lives back together - alot of them have one heck of a struggle ahead of them. Anyway, I think you have a fine state there - Alabama. I always think it is so pretty. Hmm....it does seem quite strange that we both have A after living within 5 miles of each other!!!! When did you say you got symptoms? Of course, I moved many places since then and have lived all over....but I have been sick since living down ther. Hmmm?
