I just wanted to wish all you Mother's out there Happy Mother's Day from someone who feels like I've been adopted as a son by a great group of women.

Thank you Eric.
I was going to say something funny about being more like an older sister, then I remembered my eldest son is 40 in June, so I thought i'd better shut my mouth and just accept your lovely wishes.

Hugs n roses, Meganne

Thankyou Eric, you are so thoughtful!!!

Thk you Eric; thks for being so thoughtful

That was so sweet! Thank you so much. Have a lovely day, and best wishes to all of you! :)

Eric,
What a sweet thought.

Thanks Eric for the warm wishes. I have 3 sons but none were home today; however, I heard from all of them.

Thanks Eric! You can be my adopted son anytime! I could use a cheering section today anyway! It has not been one of my best even though I did enjoy a lovely lunch with my Ga. son and his wife. The pain in my legs is just about to get unbearable. None of the meds I am taking is even touching the pain anymore. Anything any stronger and I will be bed-bound. I went through this 5 yrs ago but had surgery.This time they are trying not to do surgery because it will go too deep into the nerve tissue this time. The nerve endings are already damaged from the last surgery and right now I feel like daggers sticking into the nerves. It is all I can do to keep from screaming out in public when these nerve-endings start shooting all over my legs. My son has no patience with me which I can not understand because 3/9/09 he had a major heart attack at 42 and we almost lost him. He is doing real good right now and goes back to work tomorrow. Eric, I hope all is well with you. We enjoy your work! Don"t stay away so long at the time! Linda in Ga.

Linda,
I feel for you. I had back surgery in December hoping it would releave me of some of the misery/pain in my feet and legs, but so far it hasn't helped. The Dr said it would take a year. Hang in there.

May God bless you! It is a hard life to live like this but I have decided that I would rather be here like this than not be here so ..where do you go from there? I can sit at the computer 30 minutes and I am just about to scream in ppain. My feet and legs swell so that they feel like they are going to explode. Then..I have to go get in the bed and prop my feet up on pillows until the swelling has gone down. The disc. in my back that have deteriorated (3) are not the cause of my legs. The valves in my veins are weak and will let the blood flow down but they will not let it flow back up unless my feet are up higher than the rest of my body. This is a lifetime thing with me and can not be fixed. It causes the skin on my legs to rupture when they swell so bad. I had surgery 5 years ago on my legs and they dug pretty deep to clean the places. This time they are trying to use a chemical medicine to clean up the places and then try skin grafts. They can't dig any deeper to clean up the places because of the nerves. I can just be sitting/laying down and I will feel these stabbing pains like needles going into the nerves. When it gets really bad and last for along time I will be screaming out in pain. It would be no different if someone was burning me over and over. This has just started since they started trying the chemical meds I am putting on the two places. One large place on the back of my right lower leg and one smaller place on the left lower leg. The really bad thing is they are on the back of each leg and I have to prop these places on pillows and that part is touching the pillows. My legs are bandaged everyday but the most painful part is what is touching something when I lay down and when I try to sleep. I really think the wound care spec. goofed somewhere because they were not hurting like this until he started with a cure. Now, I stay sick on my stomach all the time. The pain is almost unbearable. Prayer is the only thing that has kept me going these last few months. My advise to you is the same you gave me. Hang in there. I am sure the Lord will see me through this. Prayer is the answer to everything! Linda in Ga
