Wow, you are a very encouraging person that I already appreciate very much. Thank you for letting me know that you have been on Prednisone for six years and I'm sorry that you have trouble coming off of it. Did it help you alot while you have been on it? I have not heard of Mycophenylate, but I'm also new to this world and am still learning. I am very happy that you've never had an infection to get out of control. You are very blessed.
Thankfully, our small town is in the process of getting an emergency care clinic as I type this letter. I appreciate your letting me know that you go to yours, if needed. I will be heading into ours as soon as they open to get their phone number and see their procedure so I can be prepared. Hopefully I'll never need to visit them again.
I was sorry to hear about your mother dying but appreciate learning about wearing gloves. I will begin looking for some of them immediately and thankfully fall things are beginning to come into the stores. I will also be looking up infection prevention and isolation rules to learn more. Thanks for letting me know about that.
Each of you have been amazing at responding to my worries, questions and giving me advice. Please don't feel like you have to stop. I have much to learn and am grateful.

It’s a lot but one of my diseases is Antiphospholipid syndrome which makes blood clot as does Covid, so I’m not taking any chances! It makes me less anxious so I do what I have to. The isolation (I miss live music) is pretty wild but, it’s my life so…
