NEW Update on from, Rhonda

[Guest guest]

Thanks to all your prayers and kindness I am hanging in there the

best I can.

has been out of the hospital for a week on Saturday. The TB

test he took where they give you some type of mark and circle it

with marker ended up turning positive. Hopefully he does NOT have

Tuberculosis and I dont believe he does because the symptoms of that

and Emphysema, or COPD as it is now called, are so alike.

The spot did turn red and swell up but I am hopeful that is just a

fluke.

He has not been back to work yet and if he goes back, it will be a

while and they have to move him to a different department than where

he was working around that chemical. I dont think the whole factory

is a good place for him to be so we shall see.

My friend of over 20yrs is still waiting on some test to come in to

see if she has MS and the couple I know that has problems are both

supposed to have surgery soon. I dont know how they are going to

make it both financially and together with no help.

I have spent a lot of time with lately and also reading the

Bible and praying.

I want to thank you all for caring so much. It really touches my

heart how this group is so for each other and what is going on in

others lives.

My prayers are with you all,

Rhonda

Did ever have to take TB tests at school? (or am I dating myself?!) Tom would show positive a lot of the time and have to take an x-ray just to make sure it was really all right. Just wondering if he had ever had a problem before.

Love,
