Ditto that thought Eagle....I don't know if I would ever be strong or brave enough to do what they do....Jackie, I truly believe, "once a Boomer, always a Boomer," but sometimes life gets in the way. All we can do is enjoy the sisters posting now and hope to see the others as their lives allow. I miss so many of them as well and wonder where they are and whats happening in the situations they so graciously shared with us. I pray for them all, and all of you here with us now.
WOW, Meredith you are Wonder Woman for sure!!!

Eagle you are right - sometimes I think the treatment is worse than the disease BUT I know in my heart it's what you have to do to get better....You certainly know what this is like by virtue of being your brother's support through his treatments. At the Infusion Center at the hospital I see whole families coming to be with their family member while they are getting chemo - it's heart-warming. There's so much LOVE you can feel it! You are wonderful to give of yourself to be there for your brother. It DOES give us more strength - believe me.

Thanks for your prayers Bluebird.....you are a sweetie!

I watched Mom take the chemo and then held her head as she was so sick afterwards. It's heart wrenching. I think you are all very brave. For those of you in the fight, God bless, and for those of you fighting side by side with your love ones, God bless you as well.

Pam and Eagle, you are both on my prayer lists. I guess I need to add Meredith and her hubby.

I am so happy to hear about Meredith's jewelry business. Her work is beautiful. I've given lots of it as gifts, especailly at Christmas. I think she needs to get in the Femail Creations catalog.

yonuh, starting over and diamond - great to see you in the neighborhood again.

The good news: Les is recuperating nicely. His meds have worked very well so he may not need the 2nd stent. My hip is s-l-o-w-l-y healing. I'm walking OK but get tired with any exertion.

My craft fairs have been going well. I worked 3 weeks in a row of 80 hours/week to catch up after the health issues. Everything that I've needed to get done, got done.

Last week was supposed to be my return to "normalcy," whatever normal is. And then my computer crashed. I've spoken to several tech people and tried all sorts of supposed solutions and the short answer is, "You can't get there from here." I'll probably take my computer into Best buy for their Geek Squad to retrieve my files before I try to reinstall Windows, which may or may not reinstall. I don't have the option of reinstalling with files intact because I have broken partitions.

Hubbo's computer is a dinosaur that takes 15 minutes just to open an email so I'm at a computer in the Library. The computers on the main floor can't log me into BWS because of permanent pop-up blockers, but I'm in someone's office right now on very short-term computer loan.

Hope to be back soon.

Meredith ,
Good to hear from you and that you are doing well . I have missed you and funny I was thinking of your the other day while I was on here and wonder what happen to you . Good news is all is well with you now.
As far as a computers did you have a firewall installed on your computer ? Spyware helps also and not much to download either .

Well , hope you computer is up working soon or you can purchase a new one soon. We miss you .

Take care ,

Renee
