Don, thank you so very much for letting us know how you and Rachel are doing. Prayers continue for you. We do serve an awesome God, even in the midst of such great suffering. May He continue to keep you and yours enfolded in His arms of comfort. May He send His people to surround you and provide for your physical needs. May Rachel be kept pain free. May our God give you the strength that you need to pass through the most difficult trial you will ever face.

Blooie, I'm so glad your stress test is behind you and that it went well. Praying that your cruise will be memorable (in a great way!) and that you will have the strength and good health needed for your cruise.

I know when I hug someone I feel better but, my son always yells "turn me loose."
I'm his mother and that hurts . Okay not a child, he is a grown man.

I only see him a couple times a year - hug when I first see him, hug maybe once or twice a day, and then a few hugs when he is going home. Sometimes it has to last a year - because he takes a vacation instead of coming here.

You should come out here, I can get you at the air port & we'll sneeeeeeeek up on him !!

Thank you everyone. But this is Rachel's thread, and it's about her. I will have a Rachel/Ashley story for later though.

Blooie, do you have a big issue swallowing anything as if your throat is constricted ? I have had to deal with my gastro-enterologist who does ALOT of procedures where they do an endoscopy/widening of the process, sure has made me happier when I swallow, none the less, I still don't swallow much fibrous stuff...

Oh yeah losing weight will help.....but i don't really have that much to lose. but dropping 10 pounds could help.......i think best thing I could do is eat less carbs.....

I had to, late diagnosis of Celiac Disease !!!...............Late like at 45 years old, so yeah the gut is scar tissue now.............but stop the carbs !!
