I have been waiting for days for my pal to post her goodies I sent. Especially the pin cushion.

Since she hasn't, maybe her internet is down.

Here is a couple of pictures.

I guess I am on the bench too. Nothing in the morning mail for me so maybe on Monday. There have been so many wonderful packages posted, what great friends we all have here on the Quilting Board!!

My heart goes out to all of you who are feeling so poorly. I have similar issues and I think it's partly the changing of the season that affects us all. Please hang in there, try not to think about it, and go on the best you can. I know it's hard but it's our only option. Hugs to you all!

He is a piece of work, if it were hunting surprises then he would understand.

Also Juli I have a friend that suffers the same as you and it is awful to watch her go through it. I even told my DD in California yesterday to send me her migraine for she has to work and take care of the gran babies so I can take her pain. She refused to share but I am willing to take others pain to help them even for aday!

I had to be put in the hospital back in June for a week to undergo some brain scanning because for the past year I have been having seizures almost every single week, where I have been having up to three a week. Right now they aren't the grand mal or the petit mal, they are these werid kind of seizures, where I would zone out for almost 15 minutes at a times, and the Doctors just can't figure out why it happens. Its really werid! Its a blank stare, I don't talk because my jaw locks up, but I just stand there in this blank stare, I can sometimes hear what's going on around me! Its very very werid!! In Nov I am going up to Oregon Health and Science University to see a Specialist up there.

Juli, prayers to St. Anthony that a solution will be found for you. I have an elderly priest friend who had the same thing. He would just freeze. Could hear everything. The first time we saw it at a dinner party we thought he was dead and called the EMS! The scary part is he lives in Spain but comes over to do missionary work in Central America - he drives down there by himself. I will start a novena for you.

Thank you, that's really sweet!! My last one just happened a couple weeks ago, I was at the store with my cousin and went into one. We were having a tea party with her little three year old daughter, then went to the store, I was picking up a shirt for Shane and Owen and was looking at them, and went into one while I was looking at them.

I have a seizure device in my chest that has a magnet that can bring my out of it, and I didn't have the magnet in my purse that day. My cousin was trying to stop all the workers, to use their cell phone because she forgot her cell phone at home. One worker's was dead, one didn't have enough minutes on his phone, so finally she just stopped a costumer and asked her: Do you have a cell phone on you? My cousin is having a seizure and I need to get ahold of my Aunt. This lady just happened to be a Resp. Therapist and knew what do how to handle a seizure, so she let Nina use her cell.
