Hi Red,
I also wanted to say I am praying for you. I really could relate too you're post about having anxiety when feeling sick, I think everyone does even the ones who do not suffer from panic disorder. I just wanted you too know I am praying and rooting for you. If this helps my boss from several years ago {and he is still alive and kicking in his seventies} had diverticlutis too, I am probably spelling that wrong, that was in the eighties and he got treatment I know and felt better and got better and the technology is so much better today I was thinking you would get better even quicker with all the advances made. My computer has been acting up and we lost power today for three hours, I just saw you're post tonight I have been thinking of you.
Sunny wrote a wonderful post it really hit home and I so agree with it. I will write tommorow and hope its a good day for you, I am under the weather myself fighting off a cold and my monthly is due and I always "go down" during that time, also very bad problems with my special-needs son and his teacher, I will save that for another time, to long and depressing too go into now. I know the antibotics will kick in, that is one thing that works for me always and I am very med phobic, I know you will be fine, and I so understand what you are going through I related to every word you and Sunny said in this post.
Did you ever see the movie Leap Year" with Amy Adams? everytime I watch that it lessens my anxiety and increases my hope, if you get a chance please watch it, its such a feel good movie, I missed "Gone with the wind" tonight due to family problems. Praying for us all. Thank you.
