@beachbum80- Hello. By all means, do lapses in your house. And you can't disappoint Bertha! Maybe she'd love some music to help? That's just terrible that the medicine that was supposed to help you made you feel even worse. Prednisone makes me a different person, one my husband would love to do without. It's nasty and I don't know of anyone who loves it. You have such a wonderful, powerful and positive outlook. We need to all be looking up! A very happy birthday, coming up. I'm sure glad that you will be joining us. It's very nice to meet you!
