Collagen works for me.
I have started using Neocell (from Amazon-free shipping) and my painful knees got relief in a very short time (10 days or so). I then took it for about a month.
I know I don't post often, but had to put my two cents in here. It couldn't hurt to try a bottle if your...
Thank you dixiegirl! She is holding her own for now. I think they are ahead of the pneumonia (the other lung had some pus ick..) They had to give her sedatives to calm her down some. It's been almost six weeks in ICU so far.
I hope the worst is over.... :/
My absolute favorite....
Black and Bleu raspberry chicken salad:
My favorite microbrewery has this on their menu and I don't go out very often. It was so easy to copy and soooooo delicious!
Mixed greens
1oz sliced toasted almonds
1 oz bleu cheese
12 or so mandarin orange slices

Still good!
Just an update......
Modern medicine is just so amazing (as well as the power of prayers!)
Maura was circling the drain literally :( For almost two weeks NO lungs came in at all. Then some came in and didn't match. Then the storm hit. Then one lung collapsed, causing dependency...
Thank you all for the prayers..
She is in surgery right now getting a new set of lungs!...............
Nervously keeping my fingers crossed.
Will let you all know :)
Thank you all for the kind words.... We are surely running out of time. One of her lungs collapsed early this morning and she is fighting with all of her strenght. :( :( :(
This bad weather is making me nervous as well. Not good timing. Arggghhhh!
Thank you all....
for the prayers and kind words. I will keep you posted on the progress. I truly believe that prayers do help! You are wonderful for including her (Maura-sorry left that out before--too used to internet caution) in your prayers. <3
A family member of mine (32 years old) is now in the hospital waiting for a double lung transplant. She has cystic fibrosis and has succumbed to its horrible effects. She needs to be on a machine to help her breathe as the lungs are pretty much done now. She has beautiful 4 year old twins and...
The tubes are comfy and great to walk/run around in. I made the mistake of thinking I could use them for step because they do feel good on the impact. I figured out the hard way that I have rolling issues!!! Under pronation I think? My ankle wants to roll outward. I have to stick to cross...
Thanks..BooBear=Best Dog I ever had (Bailey was her real name actually) She passed away several years ago and I still tear up now and then :(
As far as the FFW...thanks for the response I can't wait to order me some!!!!!
I just got a bunch of powersox by gold toe and my feet are thanking me. It was a little splurge (8 pair $16! yuck!) but soooooooo worth it IMO. They have extra cusioning at the heel and ball of my feet-and I have high arches. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Sorry if I sound like a commercial but it's easy to...
