JEAN: Thanks for the note. Everyone has their own time issues. Yesterday I had an upper & lower gastro procedure. The liquid prep & p*op was vile; the procedure was easy, except they had trouble finding a vein fo IV...6 or 7 needles. Glad THAT's over; they were very nice & thoughtful. Sara was on staycation last week and took Tuesday off to be w/ me for the procedures; hate to think it was an "outing". I have to get a life. Glad to hear from you. Big hogs & quiches, Gene

HEY,GIRLFRIEND WELCOME TO MY WORLD. I LIVE IN PAIN 24/7 BUT U LEARN TO ADJUST TO THE PAIN. IT TOOK ME 2 YEARS TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT. I TAKE METHOCARBMOL 500MG 2 TABLETS 3 TIMES A DAY AND THAT HELPS WITH THE SPAMS AND THE PAIN. I HAVE MS AND THE PAIN IS BAD SOMEDAY. THERE ARE SOME DAYS THAT I CAN WALK AND THERE ARE DAYS THAT I CANT WALK UNLESS I HAVE MY CANE OR WALKER. IF U EVER WANT TO TALK U KNOW WHERE TO FINE ME. TAKE CARE AND HANG IN THERE. REMEMBER,U ARE NOT ALONE WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER. TAKE CARE LOVE YA
