We had a alot of fun, deciding to make a 2nd batch with some variations. She loves to lick the sticky-gewy spoon and both of us were covered with milk chocolate after making our 2nd batch [Read more]

proud memories of being a little girl and my Dad coming home from work sweeping our street so that I could roller skate - without getting tripped up by rocks. [Read more]

  It is so exciting that spring is finally here. It’s been a long, long winter and I think everyone in Manitouwadge is ready for some blue skies and warmer temps, I certainly was ready for the snow to melt. The lake still has ice on it but not for long according to most people’s [Read more]

        Women’s shoes: High-heel Pumps | Piperlime shopping… Sigh, I don’t think I’ll be checking my cart out tonight. Check that, I definetely will not be tonight but am trying to get a decision made. The kids need new swimwear and I have found what I wanted for them at [Read more]

this excruciating, dibilatating pain in my bones like I have rods being shoved up my legs, arms, my hands and feet being a pile of broken bones that if I could somehow keep in one piece I would get some break from it... I know that there are answers to me having [Read more]

Long day… I am very dissapointed and concerned that I am still dealing with fatiuge, pain and other symptoms although my solumedrol treatment is done. I did not go to the hospital yet today although this is not from lack of pain but rather because the doctor prescribed new oral pain meds that [Read more]

On a different note, I was advised today that my readership included a group I was not previously aware of.

I needed to stop by the hospital first for a dilaudid injection before the three of us went to play at the Lion’s beach to play (Lloyd would be heading out for NSSSAA in Geraldton tomorrow) and the kids went by the cafeteria for some sandwhiches in the meantime. After eating they headed [Read more]

MS/Migraine Connection from Reader’s Digest – Click for PDF. Gotta love this… I have suffered from dibilitating head pressures (not regularly) which only occured since my MS Diagnosis. I insisted to doctors that these were NOT IVIg but connected to my menstrual cycle & MS and [Read more]

Another day hospital free 🙂 and still feeling fairly good (a little tired but none of the fatigue I dealt with before the solumedrol treatment.  Still working at controling my appetite and I do feel like I may be making some ground (very minimal but some). I delivered the letter requesting a [Read more]

Well, my treatment was definitely successful…I’ve been scared too say that, scared to jinx it, scared that I might be wrong and have it fade after just a day or two but it would seem that I am free – for now. Last night I even went in for a shot of Dilaudid, partly worried [Read more]

Last night… Thought we’d go in at a decent time tonight as I have messed up Lloyd & Emeraude’s evenings/bedtimes during this whole treatment. Lloyd has badminton and so Emeraude came with me to MGH and I hoped to get her some supper at the cafeteria between IM Toredol and the [Read more]

After 2 hours of arguing with Dr.Crawford about increasing my pain meds, the discussion turned to Tuesday’s (tomorrow) appointment and that I was hoping to suggest giving my IV Solumedrol treatments again (they failed in January but that was a full 3 months ago and my body might have lost [Read more]

Last Friday Lloyd was AWESOME as he had come with his sister at lunch (we had picked her up from school so it was just faster for them if we went straight to the hospital before going home [Read more]
