How to spend $50

By Nancy -
Well, after I posted this morning, I contacted one of the nurse's at UPMC because my swollen glands were really bothering me and there was no mention of swollen glands as a side effect from the bronch. Sure enough, that isn't a side effect, so they sent me to the ER for a CT of my throat and chest. Luckily nothing showed up. They also did a strep and mono test. I am a little nervous about the mono. I have been feeling very tired for several days. I probably won't get results from those test until Monday.

So, my day of rest was spent at the ER where for $50 I got a bed, a mask, an IV and a couple of good hours of reading, what a bargain!( I didn't count the CT, because that bill wil come later : ))

Hope you all had a better day than that! Nancy

Oh, Nancy. So sorry to hear about your Saturday. Do you think it's still a side effect of of your swine flu shot? I'm so glad your CT scan was clear but sorry that you have to deal with any of this!

Get well soon so you can have a great Thanksgiving! Thinking of you, as always!

Please Help!

Hello Friends!  As most of you know, I have felt called to assist Christian artist Jason Dunn.  Jason made such a huge impact on my Hannah through his music and positive outlook at a time when she was emotionally and spiritually lost.  God used Jason to answer a very special prayer I had sent to him regarding Hannah. In the time since Jason and I started working together, a lot has happened.  We founded a charity for children and young adults with diabetes called the Jason Dunn Diabetes Foundation ( www.jasondunnfoundation.com ); we put together an 8 state tour to support this foundation; and now, we have launched a campaign through a website called Faith Launcher ( www.faithlauncher.com ) to help pay off the debt from Jason's new album, Abandon Progress, but also, hopefully, to raise money for our foundation. I would like to ask you to consider helping Jason and me by supporting his Faith Launcher Campaign.  You can do this by going to www.faithlauncher.com...

Pain is under control

I was very concerned last night when the pain returned with a vengeance, I almost had to return to the ER, but I was able to talk to my brother-in-law and he suggested I take a second pain pill and that made the difference. I have made sure to be on top of the pain and not let it get so bad again. Hannah stayed home again today, but I am hoping that she will be able to return to school tomorrow. This is a nasty bug! I couldn't let Scott have all of the St. Patty's day fun. What do you think, do curls suite me? Love to you all! Nancy
