I feel the same way. Sometime it is hard for me to be online when I am in so much pain. So I figure folks are feelin the same way. It hard to sit at yur puter when you are hurtin.

yeah i guess your right!!! I hear that i have a laptop so i can bring it in my bed or with me on the recliner and forget maybe not all of you have laptops and have to sit at a desk.. How are you lettetalk?? Are you in tons of pain too? What do they give you to make you more comfortable?? Hope you have a good day hun :O)

hey celine . sorrry i havnt been on much theses days . i have had a adventure and not a nice one. My hubby took me to our local hospital on the 4th jan 2008 with numbness to the left side of my face and arm . i was kept in over night and send to another hospital for ct scan so then they found a colloid cyst in my brain so i stay there over night and was transfered to a larger hospital in the city . I then had Brain surgery on the 9th jan 2008 . and was home on the 12th jan but lost my short term memeory for about 8 weeks not fun couldnt remember anything i found shopping was the worst. so that is why i havnt been around it . it has been 5 months on the 9th may but i feel like i have lost so much time. i have only been driving sdince 9th april wasnt allowed to drive for 3 months. and as far as the kidneys he is hoping to get 12 months out of me before i need to go for transplant if my friend is the same as me and we dont have problems
well celine i hope this fineds u well and a big koala hug from me .

I hope you know that it could be that there's nothing to report. No news doesn't mean bad news.

As for me, I'm relatively pain free, watching what I eat (not DIEt), trying to exercise more to lose weight, learning to control my BP without meds, and working full time. It doesn't leave much online time, but I check in sometimes to see the discussions and if I can add my 2 cents.
