Hi @grandmar! I sure like your attitude- it’s great! I thoroughly enjoy reading your posts! They make me feel better! I have fibro, RA, diabetes, and recently discovered heart failure. Reading about others takes the isolation away. I’m isolated. I live with my brother and he’s not one to talk about feelings or illnesses. So when I feel bad, I keep quiet. I literally have no extended family that cares at all, and I just had to move away from my wonderful friends and church. I can’t drive right now, so I have no way to get to church. I fight hard to not fall down into the abyss. I hope you are ok as well as all my Connect angels. Karen
