Re: Joanne did they test you for Reactive Aurthritis?

[Guest guest]

Joanne,

I am not going to write much as someone very significant to me left the physical

body last night and I didn't know until this morning. They are now in joy in the

Spirit. I just want to say I wonder if you have both R Arthritis and fybro. See

my dr. thinks I also may have connective tissue as well as fybro. And it is one

of my many autoimmune markers but I hope not active. I am with you all the way:

no sugar, starch etc. But with things going on it's hard. Like tonight we took

down the Boutique and I need resolve to not eat what they put out when working

hard, and I wasn't hungry yet messed up yet again because it was there and I

wasn't hungry. But it may have partly been the great loss.

I may or may not be on the board for a while depending how I feel but this woman

was truly a saint so I may be okay... I just take a while to cry when those

close leave the physical form. It's like I protect myself with a numb shock.

Just prayers for her joy and no comments will help me.

Love,

Jean

Well Joanne, I may be off the board with this happening last
