Prayers heading your way for your loved ones

DLI, I have never had migraines, but I take a vitamin called Curamin, all natural product for aches and pains, no side effects that works very well, and its quick. We buy locally at a Earth Harvest store. Migraines are mentioned as something this product relieves. Its pricey, but pain needing management seems to know no price.

Thanks JT. The doctor just started her on a medicine that is actually for high blood pressure but it also helps prevent migraines. Next time she goes for an appointment I can ask him about Curamin. It would be nice to have an alternative to manage the pain. He also has her taking a large amount of B2.

Disney Loving Iowan -- I had to have an MRI for my shoulder just recently. I did an "open" MRI, which is sort of like being the meat between two hamburger buns. I am very claustrophobic!

It was fine! I did not take any valium or anything. One tip: I closed my eyes before they lowered the "top bun." I know it was very close to my face, but since I didn't see it, it wasn't bad. The technician played Enya music and I actually fell asleep!

I will pray that your daughter's experience is as easy as mine was!

Thanks to all for the prayers for my friend -- and please keep them coming!

Well the prayer must have helped cause it went pretty well! She did take the valium but she thinks that she would have been okay without it. The people were wonderful to her and really helped her out. They put a towel over her face so she wouldn't be tempted to open her eyes.

Thanks everybody!!!!!!!

So glad things went well

We purchased a Honda Odyssey van a few months back and it has a really cool area where the radio reads what song and artist is playing , etc. The space is about 6" x 8", but you can do some neat things with it, as Tammy surprised me one day with the picture below on our screen as it looks now with this pic we took ome time ago. If Im not mistaken this was a shot we made after going up on the roof with Stan the last time. So this is what i see as we ride down the road now

Last night a family of deer slept outside (all curled up) under our balcony. I'll be without access to internet for the next week while on the ship but wanted to make sure I expressed my birthday wishes to stopher and I Book He Pays (also, prayers to your friend. So sorry to hear of the cancer).
Take care all.....wishing a fond farewell to VWL....and heading out to sea......

[I Book He Pays]

Hi Everyone:

I haven't been here in months and greatly apologize for not posting as much. Life has been pretty hectic with one thing or another.

Muushka asked me to check out the thread and now I know why...

Thank you very much for the birthday wishes... I'm extremely touched and greatly appreciate you remembering my special day.

Muushka - Hugs right to ya girlfriend! Thanks for letting me know!

Update on things here...

One of my cats (Simba) was diagnosed with liver cancer in March which was a real shock to DH/I. He also has cat dementia and mild arthritis in his rear legs. Simba is a sixteen year old black/white Persian. For a cat with so many issues he's a fighter. Due to having dementia, Simba will wake DH/I up all hours of the night starting at 1am at times. Some nights he let's DH/I sleep and other nights he has us up most of the night. He's also gotten very picky on food and refuses to eat the dry food that is out for our other two cats. So it's canned food the bulk of the time and I'm feeding Simba eight to ten times a day, sometimes more.

Mom is doing OK and still has the "daughter to do list" for me. She started therapy a few months ago and making very good progress. Some days mom is OK, some days she has issues.

DH is working crazy hours and his back is still bothering him after three different procedures.

Me... I have some medical issues as well but finally obtaining answers after seeing some specialists and getting several tests done.

DH/I did travel this year (keeps my sanity) and we went to AZ for two weeks in June. Home base was a timeshare in Flagstaff. Took two day trips to Sedona, spent three days/two nights at the Grand Canyon South Rim, day trip to Meteor Crater/Lowell Observatory and walked around downtown Flagstaff. The two weeks flew by but what an amazing/gorgeous state. We did have some down time and spent them by the pool, read on the deck, slept in and relaxed. Fantastic vacation!

At the end of August, we went to Carlisle, PA for the annual Corvette event. WOW... to be surrounded by 5,000+ Corvettes was absolutely unbelievable! The classic cars were stunning and I love the older cars. Even though mine is a year old, seeing the older cars, how well they are kept, the styles back then, etc. really makes you appreciate these cars even more. Many people from our club went and we spent a lot of time with them. It was a lot of fun.

The Vette club keeps us busy as well and we try to do as many activities as we can. Wonderful group of people and fun to spend time with.

Tomorrow we are going on a seven night cruise to Bermuda and looking forward to relaxing for a week and visiting one of our favorite places via. cruise.

I'll try to post more often but with so much going on its hard to bond with the PC.

To all the new groupies... welcome!

For those with upcoming trips to the world... have a great time and enjoy!

Thanks again everyone and hope you are doing well!

C ya!
