Connie,
So glad that your sweet Holly and Lily are alright. What a scary thing and for it to be a hit and run! What is wrong with people?
I do not like driving in heavy traffic but have to when we travel to see my Ohio kiddos and grands.
Around here we don't have heavy traffic but you have to be careful. I think it's worse sometimes when there is not because people think they can scoot in when they really can't and then that is trouble. |

Wow, Connie, what a scare for Holly and Lily June!!! I am relieved to hear that they are OK. People are so careless sometimes when they drive. I hate it and heavy traffic just makes it more scary. You have so much to deal with at once on the road at high speeds!!
Denise, I am like you. The older I get, the more I hate heavy traffic like you see in big cities and along big interstates going through cities. Oh how I hate going through Atlanta, Washington, DC, Baltimore and all the rest of I-95!!! It is enough to make me either fly or not go. These days, I try and always go the longer and slower way on the older roads. They are barely traveled anymore, have plenty of gas stations along the way, and small towns to enjoy. Even with the little towns and stoplights, you can almost make it to your destination in the same amount of time or slightly longer. But any extra time is worth it to my sanity!!!!!! Plus I love to see small town rural America and get a feel for how life might be these days or was in the past. |

When we took the motorhome down the western side of Lake Michigan 2 years ago Ed put "No highways, No toll roads" in the GPS. We had a few detours, but lots of rural, beautiful countryside and farmlands. We like taking the backroads and roads less traveled - sometimes by accident and often on purpose. LOL!

| When we were leaving Wal-Mart the other day, Robert driving my car, a big pickup driver laid on his horn for a long time. We could not figure out what he was so angry about. There are three lanes, we were in the center and he was in the left. Those two both turn back toward down town. As we got on down to the split, we went to the right, which becomes the South loop around town. The angry guy was still in the inside lane, stopped at a red light. We decided he is most likely a college idiot. I call them that because their parents buy them a big 'bully' truck, a house to trash, and give them a credit card. I think the parents are glad to get them out of their house. They are bullies, loud, obnoxious,drunks. It is so nice when they are gone at Christmas and summers. |

Thank y'all so much! It was 68 here today, Holly and Lily June went to the zoo after this stressful week. They enjoyed it ! I was too tired to go,I took a raincheck. I'm use to driving a 2 lane country road most of the way to Millington. Small Town too, not much traffic. I hate heavy traffic. I drove in it 15 years and that was enough for me! I was a lot younger then!

| I understand completely Connie! I make my once a year trip into Fort Worth to see my oncologist. When I go in June it will be 10 years. Over those years I've seen a lot of construction...Now there is a new stretch of road, but thankfully I only have to be on it about a mile. I certainly hope it all looks the same this year.Last year my friend drove. We had to go to the brand new offices of Texas Oncology. Thankfully it was easy to get to. But I would not even attempt to drive in Dallas now. My arthritic neck could be a problem over there. My sister and her kids and grandkids all live in that mess, and seem to love it. I love where I am. I choose to stay at home most of the week. |

I dislike driving in traffic, especially in Dallas, too, Marilyn. Ed knows Dallas really well and likes driving, so he always drives when we go that way.

| Asking prayer for Kelly, a young woman at our church. She was diagnosed with Lupus several years ago and she is really having a bad time with a recent flare up. She gets terrible migraines and if you would pray for her I would appreciate it. |

| On Denise, yes I will pray for Kelly. Our Bay is doing better on this strict eating plan. So far she knows cauliflower is a trigger and stress! My son told me he ordered some Cannabis oil for her. He is hoping she can take it, help with the pain in her wrists and hands and calm her down. She has a psycho professor this semester, who doesn't seem to care about anyone but herself. The professor is being monitored, but they let her teach??? The students figured out that she is not even teaching from the $1,000 worth of books that she required them to buy. Go figure!!! |

Marilyn,
Kelly is not able to get out much. She gets the horrible headaches and when she does have a good day and does anything of consequence she seems to pay for it afterwards. She is only about 24 or 25 I believe. |

| My DIL has a possible diagnosis of Lupus and she has been having tests because of bad migraines. I haven't heard from her lately, so not surer if they have the migraines under control. |

She probably needs the diet Bay is on. 30 days no dairy, no sugar, no, no, no. Fruits, veggies and meat. After 30 days they reintroduce groups of foods. Very much like having a diet for a baby.Not fun! But Bay is doing better. 2 and 1/2 weeks into the 30 days.
Stress causes flares too! |

My DIL ALready went on that diet, as part of her doctor's treatment. Now her insurance is denyinig the blood tests her doctor wants and wants her to have a biopsy on her thyroid. This is NOT a good treatment.

I don't remember headaches as part of Bay's issues.
She has had digestive issues for some time, then the pain, joint pain. She told me there were times when she could not pick up one of her nursing text books. |

| Linda, perhaps the insurance company wants to rule out other autoimmune issues of perhaps they are trying to determine what she really has...you said she had a 'Possible' lupus diagnosis. When Bay went to Dr. Van den berg, he did blood work. Then he said it showed RD or lupus. That is when she saw the rheumatologist in Waco. He had to do more blood work, ask millions of questions. Then about 53 hours went by and he called her. By then he knew for sure it was Lupus. Thyroid disease is autoimmune e, especially hashimottos. |

| Kelly's migraines and lupus are connected to the gardisil shot she had a few years or so ago. I believe they no longer give the vaccine. She has other side effects as well but these are the main ones. |

| Michelle's doctor said it is lupus. And they finally approved the other blood tests. Insurance companies are so hard to work with. |

Indeed they are. My daughter has trouble with the supplier sending my grandson's diabetic supplies.She spent 3 days on the phone trying to find out why they hadn't sent them after the insurance company had paid for all of it. She finally got someone in his endocrinologist office that told them she would be his liaison between the insurance and supplier etc. to make sure he is getting what he needs when he needs it. |

You sure are right about Insurance companies and they want a high price too.
I am glad your daughter got somebody to listen about those medications he needed and couldn’t get them to send,that was terrible.
So stressful for the whole family.
You take care too!
Hugs and love |
