Update...sorry long...
Hello all my dear friends!!
I just want to let you all know Kyleigh is doing better each day. The therapy seems to be helping and the meds too. Praise God!!
They had a family therapy session yesterday they each told me it went well...what a relief! They have lots to work to do, each one of them, but they are determined for things to get better. With that attitude it just might work!
I went to an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor yesterday. I have had this lousy head cold for months. He said I have a major sinus infection going on. He put me on a much stronger antibiotic and I am praying it helps. He said the other meds just weren't strong enough to help.
My PCP wants me on Prednisone for a few days because of my asthma and lung issues(COPD). I was told at one time by my surgeon not to take it. I called my surgeon's office to find out what I should do.
Dr. Glass himself called me this morning. He said Prednisone is a wicked drug but I could take it short term if need be. I thought the nurse would call...what a nice surprise that it was him that called instead. He asked me how I was doing. He is very happy for me and will be glad to be seeing me on Feb 29th for my 6 month check up. He is just so awesome!!!
I am really working on getting caught up on my rest. I slept until 8:30 this morning....I never do that...it felt great.
Carol N. came over after support group last night so we could measure each other. I have lost a total of just under 55 inches now. I am so happy!!! My size 10 jeans are way too big. I had to pack the away. I am now in 8s hoping for 6s real soon!! I am about 10 pounds to goal...woohooo!!
My daughter Jamie, Nic's mom just called me. Nic will be going to New York on the week of March 17th for his consultation and scans and such at Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. I am scared but yet glad at the same time. It can't be ignored so he best just get on with it. Please keep him in your prayers!! Nic is such a wonderful and loving young man......I love him with all my heart!
Enough rambling for me...sorry this is so long. I wish you each a good day and a fun and exciting weekend!! I love each and everyone of you! I don't know how I would have made it through all this without you. You ROCK!!!
Hugs and love....connie d 
Jesus declared, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty." 
I too have been on prednisone before. Before my surgery I was on it quite often. Everytime I was on it I gained 10-12 pounds and just couldn't lose it....it is a nasty medication but it really does work.It causes crazy mood swings that is for sure!
I am still debating as to whether or not I am going to take it.
I haven't tried Spirivia yet but will be asking about it when I talk with my doctor. Thanks for the greatr idea.
Also want to thank you for the healing energy you are sending my familys way. That is so nice and very appreciated!
Hugs, connie d
