Long time away .... Brief synopsis.... *found a great physical therapist *Pregnancy #6 helped reduce spondy pn *directed a successful pirate festival *spent last 3 weeks of pregnancy in start-n-stop labor while in hospital with dd#3 who went status epilepticus and almost didnt come out of it. Had to slam her with lotsa meds. *alexander was born at home in the middle of the week long pirate fest. He was the darling of the event. *lotsa pt, ot & speech therapy to get dd#3 functioning better. *told hubby i was done with his abusive crap and wanted a separation. *life started getting worse *went to wyoming with kids to visit my long lost brother for a few weeks during christmas and to give hubs time to get an apt. *transmission went dry *hubby filed for divorce to get me back home a week later and said hes not moving out. I am to continue to live with him. *dd#3 went to hosp ER a couple days later with ear infection. Stayed a week with 'failure to thrive' from epilepsy med overdosing. She was unable to eat since on so many meds her body was shutting down. *had to miss a friend of the court mtg to determine temp custody, visitation & child support cuz she was in hosp. *my brother gets an infection in his hand. Turns out to be mrsa and he is in the hospital now, losing a thumb. *hubby is working on taking the kids away. He's keeping my finances to a bare minimum as punishment for not coming home when he said. *hmmm.... I think that is everything in a nutshell. Not sure i like being stuck in the middle of nowhere, wyoming in the winter!!! Brrrr! It kinda sux out here! Lol! But it looks like i will be working on residency for awhile anyway, to keep him from making me go back to MI and living with a very unstable controling and posessive man. Gotta love my life ......

Sounds like you are having a rough time. I hope things get better real soon. I'll say a prayer for you today and for your family. Take care.
Diet change has improved my RA. I feel best eating raw veggies and some fruits and avoiding grains, sugars, nightshades, beans and dairy. Sed rate dropped from 65 to 19, but it took over a year. www.fatsickandnearlydead.com excess fat/oils = pain for me recipes for raw food on Youtube "raw food romance" and "healing josephine" Josephine is in remission from RA after two years by change diet/exercise

Hello Trudi,
Sounds like you are going through a lot.... AS is enough and appears you have much more.
Pray you can find some answers to all the issues you are dealing with.

Trudi, I'm glad you came in to talk. You are so strong, are being so strong, please try to find the energy and make the time to do compassionate things for yourself.
Is there someone you can turn to for support and help?
Please keep coming in here. It's so much easier to bear life's crap with people who care to lean on.
Love and Warm Hugs,

Trudi - Was only thinking of you the other day, wondering how you and the children were. What a horrible situation. Join others in hoping that you find a good outcome and find a circle of support to help you through this time. Hope your daughter pulls up quickly from her illnness and your brother recovers quickly from that beastly infection. What a plateful. Come back often to the 'family'. Please take care, many (((HUGS)))

Thx for the love. Much needed. My time and options are running out. I am in shock and so much pain. I haven't really slept since. Ruths 3 week hospital stay in july. Exhausted. I just wanna curl up and sleep forever. Now to find a lawyer to prove my innocence so I don't lose the kids. Oh wait. That takes money. Shoot. Going to Lons in a bit.
