Anno,
If I missed something, I'm sorry. I'm sure you know what's best
for both of you. Someone told me to contact TV investigators
about a problem I have and I couldn't do it. It sounds good but
that's a difficult thing to do. Prayers and blessings,

No apologies necessary, Jabber. Like you, it's just not something I could do. I doubt there would be any interest, anyway.

Thank you all, for your well wishes. I probably don't say it often enough, but knowing that I have so many girlfriends in my life, makes my day brighter each day. I feel that I have a second family here at BWS. You all have been so kind to both of us.

Anno..I think that there would be an interest because diseases such as Dennis seems to have are becoming more and more common..and found in much younger people. My daughter here works as a nurse at a neurological department..and often the doctors are quite stumped by the symptoms and problems. The brain/body are such a complex things..and they know so little about it all as yet.

BUT I can totally relate to it being something diffucult to do. I had the possiblity with my daughter, many years ago..but could never bring myself to do it. Pain and illness is such a private thing,too..it has many facets..

Anyway..I am checking here often to hear about what is happening with you and Dennis..you are always with me in my heart and thoughts.

Anno,
I'm with you. People here seem like a second family: A very
warm, wonderful family. And that warms my heart, too.

You are so sweet, Humlan.

Things are okay. We have not heard the results from the latest test, yet, but I expect to soon. Here is a synopsis of our 2 day visit, though.

We started at 10am with Dennis getting his vitals taken and then a mixture of iodine and water down his throat. The iodine was to counteract any issues with the radio-active isotopes that were injected.

Then we'd have an hour off, and back to the research labs for an injection of the isotopes.

Then an hour and a half off and back to the labs for pictures.

Then an hour off and back to the lab for vitals.

Finally we'd have enough time to grab something to eat and head for bed. The second day, though, we needed to drive back home - about a two hour drive.

We were both exhausted. And with no results, unsatisfied.

I will write more as soon as I know more.

Thinking of you and Dennis, too, Anno. I know this must be a difficult time for both of you, but I think you know we're all rooting for y'all!

Dennis sent me 1 dozen, long stemmed, red roses, (with a heavenly scent) with flowers the size of baseballs. he sent them to work so he could show off. Another reason he is a keeper.
