Update

My mom is doing better. She ended up having to go to the doctor on Friday because her fingers and ankles swelled up and she was still in a lot of pain. Dr. B said that it could be rheumatoid arthritis or a virus her body wasn't fighting off very well. Mom was given steriods, Vikaden, and a sample of arthritis medicine. She's been in a lot better mood, and even mopped yesterday (why? I don't know). Her fingers are back to normal, and her shoes fit again. :) Thanks for everyone's support.

Did nothing this weekend but read OotP. Would reread it, but I'm trying to finish Pride and Prejudice by tomorrow evening. Barnes and Noble's literature book group is discussing it tomorrow an my little sister wants to go. We've been rewatching the miniseries when we weren't chowing down OotP, but I want to reread the book anyway. Course, I have to work. And write. Lucikly, I get to finish work today at home, since I have a dentist appointment and everyone is going to be out walking the campus with the blind kids coming for computer camp.

Okay. Back to work. More later.

MOM'S ARTHRITIS

[(Anonymous)]

My dad seems to be going through the same thing. He's been in incredible pain for three weeks already-his wrists, shoulders, knees and feet. The doctor thinks it's either some sort of inflammatory arthritis, or the start of rheumatoid arthritis. He's been taking prednisone, and it seems to help some, but he's till in pain. If you could e-mail me and tell me what your mother's taking, I would really appreciate it. My address is alanluvmax@aol.com. Thanks.
