@v1crew, Craig, I haven't seen anything posted by you recently. I am worried about not hearing from you. I hope that you are okay.
Sending you a virtual hug,
Rosemary

Just been busy. Had another apt last week sodium went up but I think it was a fluke as it was much lower 2 weeks prior. So things are basically the same. still dealing with the SCLE But hopefully we are getting that under control. Other than that I just continue to work on training Saoirse. It is coming along, albeit slowly. But I guess she is still a puppy (7) mo. Thanks for touching base Craig

Craig, Thanks for the reply. I am happy to hear from you. I can't believe that you sound like me: comparing and explaining lab results! I think it makes us 'fee'l like we have some control!
Is there a treatment for SCLE? other that avoiding sun, do you do anything else? I am glad you are getting it under control. I hope that you continue in that direction.
Thanks for the picture of Saoirse. She is even cuter than last photo. I think the two of you are good for each other.
Keep on talking care of yourself.
Rosemary

@jimhd, Did you intend to make a reply? Rosemary

@rosemarya

I did write a post, but somewhere else. I accidentally clicked on post. My oops.

Jim

SCLE they give you Hydroxocholquine, and stay out of the sun. But now I have a little cancer near my eye that they have to cut out consultation with surgeon is the 29th. The hits just keep on coming,lol,

@v1crew

Too true. Life does just keep coming at us. For me, sometimes I can handle the hits and keep going. Other times, it's not so easy. I become more depressed and sit in my recliner most of the day, rather than doing something from the very long list of things that need to be done.

How do you find the ability to press ahead when the hits keep coming?

Jim

@v1crew -Hi Craig. I am sorry to hear of this complication that you are facing. will you be going to Mayo Jacksonville for this? I will be thinking of you on 29th. You are often in my thoughts because of your liver issues.
Thanks for the picture of your precious Saoirse! I know you and she are good for each other.
Have you seen the new discussion about animals that is going on? I will send you the link when I get back on my computer next week.

@v1crew -Hi Craig, I'm home, and back at the computer - I was in Rocky Mountain National Park for some hiking and outdoor sights.

I remember that I did not feel much like making conversation when I was waiting for transplant, with all the health miseries that occurred. But I would like to share these new discussions about animals that you might enjoy just reading. I imagine that you might feel a smile or enjoy a moment of diversion as you read and enjoy them.

Give Saoirse a pat on the head for me,
