Thank you, OP, for this thread. I've been thinking about Lilac Tree and hoping she is okay.

Wondering along with the rest if you are ok. Like the others, when you don't post in days, we all are concerned about you. As I have said before, my thoughts are with you often, and the 5th was quite awhile back. If you see this and are able, please let us know.

And @Zhills thank you for starting this thread.

Thoughts to you LilacTree,

Lilac Tree Ford, Along with others am wondering if you are able to let us know what is going on in your world. Always look forward to read your thoughts on different subjects. Above all hoping that you are feeling as good as you are able. Take care and know posters are thinking about you.

To my friends,

I really didn't realize it had been so long since I have posted. I have been in an RA flare and two UTIs, and my daughter is experiencing a relapse in her chronic Lyme as well. We have both been pretty much housebound for quite some time, although she is able to drive to pick up necessities and my other two daughters have been coming over on weekends (they each take a day). They are a godsend.

I appreciate you reaching out to me . . . it means a lot to know I was missed. But I will recover and get to posting again, hopefully soon. In the meantime, please don't be concerned. I wanted to respond so you would know we are OK. Thank you so much. (((Hugs))) ~Ford

Was glad to see this post @Zhills this morning. Thanks for posting it.

I was thinking of you, @LilacTree just last night. Our grandson was doing some yard work for us yesterday and we got on the subject of Lyme disease. He is 19 and "gonna live forever" you know. I told him he should be careful. A woods borders our back yard and we have a fair amount of deer around here. I told him about your daughter and the imformation I have attained from reading your posts. Thank you for those....it gave me some leverage with him. Ha!!!! He seemed to take it seriously. Was also wondering how you have been. I knew you were in a flare up. Anyway, you have been in my thoughts lately. Hope things are looking better for you by now.

@LilacTree Thanks for checking in. Sorry you are having a rough time right now and hope it passes soon. Glad your daughters are willing to help you when you need them. You are blessed. Now get well and hurry back!

@LilacTree

Glad to see you back...I too was getting anxious. Can you go in the grass anywhere anymore in this country?!

A squirrel has bitten 5 people so far in Prospect Park, Brooklyn, N.Y. Maybe rabid...

Hi everyone,

I took my last amoxicillin yesterday, so hopefully I will be back to posting more often very soon. Antibiotics make me very nauseous, and I am still nauseous today. It seems the UTI is gone, but it seemed as though the first one was gone also, and it came back in ten days or so. Fingers crossed this time it won't return.

It's odd that once one stops posting for a while, it's hard to get back into it. I've been lying down and watching too much TV which has me pretty weak both physically and mentally. Summertime TV is pretty awful, and even QVC is unwatchable, so I've been watching too much news on CNN, and that affects my mood.

My daughter is still on her daytime sleeping/nighttime awake schedule. That means we hardly ever see each other. This is a long time for her, it's been weeks. She needs a few days in a row being awake during the day to get back to some sort of normal schedule.

Again, thank you all for your caring words. I'll take a look around the rest of the BB to see if there's anything that piques my interest enough to get my stiff fingers working again!!

You folks are great . . . I hope you all know that!! Good people.
