Quick Update.

Hi Robin. I would love to be able to talk to your friend. I do have some knowledge of this as my Mom had it but I know alot has changed since then...My Mom died 24 years ago and I know alot of progress has been made since then. It is a really strange disease but one I will fight... Hugs, Betsy

Sorry to hear that Betsy. Tried to call you back yesterday since i missed your im. I was on an important phone call. Sorry. Will try again today. Shannon

Hi Sweetie...I understand, Shannon...I know I miss alot of IM's during the day as I leave the computer on all the time and I am not always there at my desk. Not a problem. Call anytime...I love to hear from you. Hugs, Betsy

G'morning Betsy - Although I don't know much about MS, I have learned a few things over the last year or two, because (as Wendy mentioned in another post) she has a very good friend who's been dealing with it for several years now. Lots of positive vibes, thoughts and prayers coming your way - knowledge is power, educate yourself, even MORE so then your own doctors knowledge, it will serve you well. Hugs - Lei

Hi Lei...I sure do miss your smiling face! How are you doing? Thanks for the encouraging words...I can beat this thing...can't let it get me down. I know I will have good and bad days, heck I have had them all summer LOL...I just thought it was old age!! Can't get this old lady down though...Love ya and miss ya bunches...have a blast in Lexington and watch out for Tink for me...hehe. Hugs, Betsy

Hey sweety - Ive been doing GREAT - staying in trouble, causing trouble, denying the trouble, same-o same-o! LOL Im sure I'll be a round a LOT more now that winter is looming it's ugly head. Gawd, I know a lot of people love FALL and WINTER, but I despise it. I feel like a mean ol' grizzly bear who CAN'T sleep the months away, so I'll just stay up and whine about it. Gee, lucky you huh? Only FOUR more months of expressing on my part. Oh trust me, I won't have to watch after Natalie, have you seen her costume? EVERY ONE ELSE WILL HAVE THEIR EYES ON HER! I'm seriously thinking of locking her in the trunk of my car during the costume ball. What do you think, should I act on that? LOL Hugs - Lei

I'm so sorry, Betsy. I can't imagine what you are going through. You are definitely in my thoughts and prayers!!! Love you, Amber

Betsy, Hang in there. You have an army of friends praying for you. Even if it does turn out to be MS you can deal with this. Look what you have come through already -- WLS. Plan for the future, but live today focusing on making it the best day possible. When you make a mistake, admit it, forgive yourself, and move on. Tomorrow you won't have regrets. Praying God Will Bless You -- Real Big Today CathyA

I will keep you in my prayers. Blessings... Erika

Oh, Betsy! I'll keep you in my thoughts Try to keep your positive attitude and if it ever falters, just let us know, so we can pick you up!!! Julie
