Hi :

Cath here. Haven't been posting lately due to job change and numerous

other situations.

I just wanted the ones who know me to know that I am doing ok. I am

feeling better although still have aches and pains. I am going to join

with Dr. Bruckner and let her know of some of my unconventional

medication being used that my docs think are keeping doing so well and

preventing respiratory damage. I figure any info she can get may help

with research.

I can finally now say to those who know what a horrible divorce I went

through, that God once again provided for me. The house is now in my

name only and the PMI insurance was dropped which does help with making

the house payment a little better. I don't know how God did it, but the

mortgage company waived all of their qualifying assumption charges to do

this and since I had quit claimed the house from Cathy Enderle (married

name) to Cathy Conrad (maiden name), I was able to forego hundreds of

dollars in docs stamp fees. The court recording department says they

have never seen anyone pull off something like this with the quit claims

and department of revenue had to check the records to see that

everything was legal, and it was. Even the mortgage company said I

would not be able to do it. Everyone says it was a different route to

do transfer without Blain's signiture (due to restraining orders etc)

but that

they would all try to help others in my spot if this situation is ever

presented again.

To those of you who don't know me, I went through a horrible divorce in

which he promised to destroy me. He did not know the power of God's

love in my life and how he has blessed me throughout this whole

process. God gave me the strenght to keep going when I had nothing

left, and has helped keep my faith and belief even stronger than it has

ever been. I am so grateful for all that God has done in my life.

I try to keep up with the postings, but it is hard since I am working

alot to try to pay all the bills.

Please add my name to the list for Dr. Bruckner to contact, since maybe

something I'm doing has helped keep me off Pred and any methotrexate

etc.

I pray that no one in our group lost loved ones in the recent disaster,

but even if no one has, we have all lost greatly. I know I personally

faced evil and although it was horrible, my trust in God was rewarded

and God won. I also know that God will conquer this most horrible evil

that was done last tuesday, it may take some time, but God will win for

all of us.

Bless everyone in the group and I so wish I could have gone to Ok for

the reunion. I will be there next time no matter what. That is a

promise I have made myself.

My prayers as always are with everyone in the group and I am so proud of

what you are all doing. I don't have a lot of time, but if I can help

in any way, please let me know. You are all the best that God has to

offer and he again took a horrible disease and gave us a blessing with

each other.

Take care,

Cath
