This is the first time I've been on in a few weeks & it's so sad to see that  Legina passed. My thoughts & prayers are with her family.

Hey Coast Lady, Congrats on your first steps.  Yes burpring is normal and a pain.  Get familar with Chewable Gas-X tablets.  They seem to work for me and lots of walking.  I agree with my angel's advice of taking small sips.  I also learned that if you sip water on the down beat of breathing when you exhale than inhaleling it minimizes the air that is going down in your tummy.  I wish you all the best.   HIJACK! Hey Angel I haven't seen you in ages?  How have you been? 

I'm so sorry to hear that Legina passed, but she rests in the arms of Jesus now.  She fought a valiant fight.  My deepest sympathy to her daughter and other loved ones, and to you on these boards who cared so much. I haven't been on the board much lately, there's been so many things happening lately to people we know.  One of our good friends passed away last week from a massive heart attack.  His funeral was Oct 31st. The week before that our new grandbaby was in the hospital for 8 days.  They finally determined that he has a faulty valve in one of the tubes that runs between the kidneys and bladder.  It's called vesicouretal reflux (not sure about exact spelling).  They are going to try antibiotics for 3 mos, but have made an appointment with pediatric urologist / surgeon in Jackson, who may want to see him sooner.

Several other things have happened, to the point that I'm afraid to say what next....

Love to all,

Pam

Girl, I know what you mean by busy and kids getting on nerves.  LOL.  This time of year is real stressful for me too.  It is my traveling time of year for work.  I have been flying all over the place.  Plus, holidays and birthdays all fall now.  Glad married life is going well.  As long as you want to kill him every now and then it is all good.  LOL.  Keep him in line, girl.  Ha ha ha. It is probably about a 1.5 to 2 hour drive from Jackson to here depending on traffic.  I did find out that there will be no visitation nor wake and I posted it on here for everybody.  She told me that sometimes when there is a financial strain that people will cut the wake out of the service and just do graveside.  I suppose maybe that is why there won't be one.  The lady at the funeral home didn't know for sure or anything.   Melissa

If you find out anything about Tuesday, let me know as I could probably come to that and will just have to see about Wednesday. Thanks - D
