Feeling alright

WELL, guys, I guess I need to kick myself in the butt here and get going hone. I can't stand all these pokes and prods anymore.I am feeling 199%better ,however, than I did yesterday.The Dr said I had a good MRI (better than his ,whatever that means) And they think that some of my hullucinations may have been coming from the cyclosporinro. So, now they are watching then.So it looks like this messes discharge up a little bit. But I have to take it 1 day at a time. YES I CAN!

    Mom, that is great news! We knew that something was off in your medicine. Atleast they found it and you feel better today.

    We already told you mom, but for everyone else; Erika had her Dr. appointment today and she is going in tomorrow (Tuesday) night at around 10pm to start the induction process. We are very excited and cant wait to meet baby Liv.

    Cindy,
    I knew you couldn't be kept down for very long. As Dr. Phil says, "The best predictor of future bahavior is past behavior" and we all know you have rebounded time and time again due to your tenacity. We expected nothing less of you. God has placed special angels in your path to help you in the form of Ginny and Steve. They are able to give you what no one else can possibly give and it must be such a comfort when they share their journey with you. You will no doubt be that angel in someone else's life when you are healed and the need arises....because that's just the kind of person you are and always have been. Stay focused and take things slowly. You will be holding your precious new grand daughter very soon. Our prayers continue for you and we will pray that Erika has a safe and swift delivery of Liv.
    Love,
    Daleen and Denny

    Hey Abb,
    So good to hear yer feelin sooo much better. None of us likes those really low times of this journey we're learning from...
    (actually we don't like any part of this journey, however, we have to play the hand we're dealt. without do-overs)ARGH!!!
    So anxiously waiting for the announcement of Princess Liv. Is it me or does anyone else think she's been taking longer than the typical 9 months? Prayers & Love to You and Erika, Kyle, Kade and KJ too. Val

    HI CINDY
    SO GLAD THAT YOU ARE DOING SO MUCH BETTER. THAT MADE MY DAY TO HEAR THAT. THOSE MEDS CAM REALLY MESS THINGS UP SOMETIMES. WE KNEW YOU WOULD BOUNCE BACK. IT IS SO GREAT TO HAVE STEVE AND GINNY GUIDE YOU THROUGH THOSE ROUGH SPOTS FROM THEIR PAST EXPERIENCE. NOW KICK BUTT AND GET OUT OF THERE SO YOU CAN HOLD THAT NEW GRANDDAUGHTER REAL SOON AFTER HER APPEARANCE. IT WON'T BE LONG.

    Hiya Bella!
    Thatta girl, you sound GREAT! I couldn't wait to get home from school to see if you could blog and lo and behold----- you did it!!!! Just think, a new baby is waiting to met her Nana tomorrow. Good luck Erika! Remember, Cindy, look FORWARD not behind. Keep focused on that road home and see all the people lined up and ready to greet you with smiles on their faces as big as BIG can be. Slow and STEADY, kiddo, that's the key to start your bus. Let your body do its job and you control your mind. No med is going to keep you down for long. Keep Steve as your co-pilot and bring that that Magic Bus into the driveway. See it, Believe it, you're comin' home!

    Mom, I am so glad to be able to come up and stay for a while yesterday. You seemed to be doing better. I hope each day shows progression and it gets you out of there. I can see the depression in you and you need to get your strength back because you are going to do this. You have gotten this far and you are definitely coming home. I know that this set back took a lot out of you, but those boxing gloves need to go back on and we are all here to cheer you on. As soon as you feel you can you need to get up out of that bed and show everyone what you are made of. The sooner you get moving the sooner you will be able to hold your grandbabies! I love you mom and I know you can do it!
    Love,
    Jess
