First, I wanted to say how much your emails and posts have meant to me this last week. I have been in the hospital and will go into more detail about all of this when I am emotionally stronger. But basically, I had let life kick my ass and I was so tired of roaring. Sometimes it is easy to forget that you have friends, like all of you, to do your roaring when you are not able to. I have been learning alot this last week and I feel my strength coming back slowly but surely. Keep me in your prayers. I was pretty upset that I had missed the birth of Elaine's grandbaby and all the joking and caring that has been going on but it was something I had to do. On a brighter side, I have decided to look at life as a bowl of cherries and I damn sure do not want to be the pits..I want to be the cherry. LMAO...(knew you would love this jonny). My love to all of you. If I ever had a strong support group and family, I have one now. One question I do need to ask is, my Dr. started me on topamax and I think I am having some side effects...when I try to sleep, it is tingling all in my arms and legs and I can not sleep, has anyone else had this experience? Let me know. I am still on verapamil. Again, I have alot of words of wisdom to share that I have learned this last week, but I am not strong enough at this point to do so. But have no fear, you guys know me, I will soon. I love you all dearly. smiles and all the love in my heart to all of you, nancyc I have missed you guys terribly!
