CHEERY O
Double checking the date--- yes, I am good. ;)

I cannot thank you all enough for your thoughts and prayers. I swear, they helped, I know they did. Just knowing I have such amazing people by my side-- so thank you all.

yeah, I think it is a pretty much done deal too- the lawyer was def. pleased. And that has to be a good sign. It was emotional too. It was getting validation on something you know to be true, but until we heard the final word- disabled- I don't know....its hard. I told Gary that I would never think of him as disabled. And I never want him to give up on getting better.

So on to today-- I am all showered, non-deodoranted, and non-caffeinated (ugh :( )
But I'll be fine- again, I know you guys have my back.

Clara- I had to show Gary what you wrote - I was cracking up- I'll have to remember every detail to report back to you cuz its cool. :)


And how about all of you?? How are you doing? Hope everyone is great, feeling good and having fun!

Love you all- (((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))
 
Dear Chris, again in this post lots of love and hugs from me. I know things will work out for you guys!

I have been realy busy this last week and the weekend, my MIL stayed with us for a couple of days, and that felt strange but really good. She hadn't been to our house for two years, so it was also emotional for all of us.
And I am so sorry I missed Selena's Spotlight, sorry hun (don't know if you are reading this).

the sun is shining here in the Netherlands, and I am sending you all some sunshine!
Hugs, Wia
 
Good morning my great and wonderful O family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chris....I just know that this entire week is the BEGINNING for you!! Today will go just as fabulous as yesterday!! I can feel it!!!!! No one deserves it more!!! Oh and it can be ANY day you want it to be!!!! You deserve that one too!!! ;) I have my full Christmas goodie (Faery) list ready for you, I will PM you to let you know what I am going to order so you will know what stuff you need!!! My girls will be so thrilled, and me too!!!

Hi Wia!! I am glad you popped in!! and Selena's spotlight is still going on right now, I think:rolleyes:....at the OSorted thread....If not, play anyway!! I missed Mirjam's but I am going to do it anyway!! I was so unmotivated the first half of this month!!! Thanks for the sunshine and sounds like you MIL had a nice visit with you!! That is wonderful, and I am sure it did you all some good!!!

Good Morning LindaS...Have a great day!!

All of you have a great day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have my babies today, but I am trying to make the preperations to help get Traci moved in two weeks...YAY!!! You can not believe how thrilled she is....this is something that she thought would never be possible for herself. And I am so proud of her, doing it all on her own!!! She is finally starting to build a life for her and her children, and I will keep pushing her as I always have, but maybe I will not have to push quite so hard :D.

Chris....this is just another outcome that you should know as long as you keep at it, never give up, it WILL happen!!!
 
Thanks all so much!

here- this will make you all laugh a bit- I told Gary that they'd better not take a lot of tissue with this biopsy- I don't have any to spare! Too bad it isn't coming from my butt :p

Wia- hugs to you. Did you show your MIL your stunning LO's of the service?

Linda- happy belated b-day to Shaun!
 
Chris - I know I didn't post yesterday - busy day. But I did take a moment to say a prayer for Gary mid-day for everything to go well. So glad to hear things went well. I will still pray for a positive result, as well as one for you and your tests today.

I know disability was easier for my husband to get as he went for a closed period. Still, everything took a long time - longer than his actual accident case. The waiting is the hardest part. I can imagine how weird it is to hear that word "disabled" - all you think about usually are the things he can do and the person he is. Just remember "disabled" only defines his work status, not the man he is.

Hope all is well with everyone else!!!
 
Morning my ofam!!!

Chris, so glad that everything is better today (and will be even better after the biopsy!!!) The whole thing with "disabled" reminded me of when Lillian was a baby and the dr said she officially had Cerebral Palsy. We were stunned...but the dr was such a great dr...she said, "remember that this really is for insurance purposes so she can receive the therapy that she will need throughout her life...she will probably grow out of this diagnosis when she's three of four!!" I tell you, we milked it for all it was worth!! LOL!! but it still hurts to think of your loved one as "different!" (actually we are all so freakin different, what are we talking about!??!!???!!) ahaahah...have a great day, my different friend!! LOL!!!

Wia, hugs to you, babe!! glad to see you drop in here!!

LindaS, hope your day is marvelous today! Are you seeing your trainer today? you are my inspiration!!

LindaW, ohhhh hug those babies for me!! and get all the computer time you can while they still can't get into anything!! I was thinking of you last weekend when I had Megan's darlings!! LOL!!!

Hi Leslie!! hugs to you and i totally agree about the work status!! LOL!!

i'm off to my friend's house to quilt all day (actually to bind all the quilts!!). Send finishing prayers up for me!! It's a character flaw that I'm conquering little by little!! :)

love you all!!! have a great Tuesday!!!!
 
Good Afternoon and hello to all!!!

Chris....(((((HUGS))))) I am so happy that things went so positive yesterday!!!

I am trying to be good today and do a super clean of my kitchen while Nick's in school!...so I have to post and run!!!! Hope you all have a fabulous day!
 
okay...so I am really upset right now so I am just warning you...

so last year for Christmas my dad said he was getting my mom a digital camera because they didn't have one and then she could take her own pics of the grandkids and stuff. I thought it sounded awesome so I got her a digital frame and a camera case to go with it. Well, apparently it was a horrible gift and my mom made sure everyone knew this. It was apparently just my dad's way of not having to take pictures and she had supposedly told us she wants a nintendo ds and a mini blender or something like that and we have heard all year long about what a horrible gift it was. All year!! Come on now. So, the camera case was immediately replaced because it wasn't what she wanted and the digital frame has been in the box all year. Fine, whatever. So, two years ago my sister said we should get my mom the Kindle (the Amazon reading device). None of us had seen it and kind of poopoo'd it and then last year Derek also suggested it. Then this year I saw someone with it and agreed it is the perfect gift for her. Well, she has never seen one or looked into it so she knows nothing about it. So, I told my dad about it and he said no way because she has no interest in it (because she knows nothing about it) and he doesn't want to spend another year hearing about what a horrible gift he got her...even though we got her the stupid nintendo for Mother's day even though it was more than we could afford. So, now I am really irritated and upset because i do not think this is the spirit of Christmas at all. I mean my dad can get my mom what he wants to, but to make his decision about what to get her based on how painful it will be throughout the year for him is horrible. After my parents got married for my mom's birthday my dad bought her a blender so that they could make milkshakes. She had hinted that she wanted these pants and he didn't get them for her and got her a blender instead. He didn't know any better. he was 19 and raised ina typical midwest family where mom wears an apron and cooks dinner to be served at 5:00 every day and does all the typical mom stuff in high heels and a dress. That's what he knew. It made sense to him. They have been married for 35 years and we still hear the stupid story. It just infuriates me and that is not what Christmas is about and now I am mad and want to get her nothing. Ugh!!!

Okay...I am going to go now. I will be back once I can get myself happier.
 
popping in super quick.... just got up from a nap ;)
back home. doing ok so far- just very tired and sore. It took longer than expected, they had to do the procedure twice- yuck. They weren't able to get any calc's inthe first set of samples so they had to go back and take moe.


I asked the nurse if there was any way to tell based on what they saw.... she said it all looks like raw chicken when it comes out - seriously!! hahahah!
So next Tuesday at 10 i go back for a recheck and results.

Clara- I did look around the room and think of you- and I could kind "feel" the needle as it spun to cut the tissue, and I thought of you again buahahahahah!!
Now- how many people can say that they had a friend think of them during a needle biopsy???

I heard from Scott's school too- they are processing the medical "pull out" now. Not sure how long that will take but maybe this week or next. I am guessing before the T-day break. So.... the worst is over.yay!
 
Hey chris, what does that mean, "processing the medical pull-out"? I mean, he's home now, right? you have to do paperwork so you aren't processed by a truant officer or something? just wondering!
 
just poppin' in to say hey... we're soooo busy around here... Piper just started rehearsals for the Nutcracker in One Act... so it's busy busy and I'm having 10 for Thanksgiving include me, Gabe and the kids...

love you all!
 
Hey all! Popping in to see what happened with Chris, glad the yucky part is over, just wish you didn't have to wait a whole other week! yuck! ((((hugs))))
 
Chris, I couldn't come yesterday, but I thought of you and I prayed a lot! I'll keep praying and I'm sure we'll have good news next Tuesday! Stay optimistic!!! Big hugs!!!
