Lilac Tree, I just found this thread, I have to make it a point to check a few forums because I never know where you are going to be posting. Anyway, you are entitled to a bad day or two but by the third day you have to be over it...those are orders.

Seriously though, I know only too well what living with pain is and it is exhausting. There are days all I want to do is sleep so I won't feel the pain but that doesn't work, I can't sleep that long. Sure there are days I think I can't do this anymore but one day follows another and I have no choice but to keep going on. So if you are feeling under the weather it's okay because you will feel better and better and better with time. You have a lot of people here rooting for you and we all know you will be back to your old self when you are ready to be back. In the meantime, love and good thoughts are being sent your way.

As you know, LG, we have a lot in common, the same age, the same illnesses, we understand each other. We have accepted all of it, most of our “living” is in the past now, yet we are still here and grateful for it. Having been a sick child, I never envisioned myself living into my eighties, yet here I am at 81 when my poor mother was only 49 when she died, and my beloved sister was 72, which I don’t consider old anymore.

thank you for your always encouraging words, and may I wish them back to you. I don’t say “have a good day” anymore. I say have a peaceful one.
