I'm glad you found us. I havent been posting much since Ryan's accident but am trying my best to get back into life. I read the good news about Bob. Is he still doing well?
Looking forward to getting the old gang back together. I know I am really going to need a lot of support getting back into things here.

Wow, thanks for the welcome. I need to get back to basics, regular exercise, reasonable eating, and proper rest. Easier said than done.
I was daignosed with osteoporosis in July, as a result of 12 years on thyroid meds and going through menopause. The more I read the scarier that was. I took one dose of the med advertised on TV and had an extreme reaction. I am just now getting back to normal. I experienced significant fatigue and bone pain. Won't be taking that again! I saw a specialist and was "prescribed" daily exercise, weight bearing cardio and strength training in addition to supplement. I was found to be vitamin D deficiant. Interesting stuff that vitamin D, those of us north of Atlanta probably need supplements.
At any rate miss you all, need the encouragement and support of people who know me. I tried a big group and it was so easy to be anonymous. So here I am at my heaviest, beginning again.
Pam I appreciated your note on Bob's site. You are frequently in my thoughts and prayers. I hope you sense them.

Hi ejoyce. I'm sorry to hear about the osteoporosis diagnoses. I need to get back into things too. Its so hard but I know I have to take care of myself for Kara and Tanner. Just before Ryan was killed I had found an endo that was able to put everything together for me and I was losing again. After the accident though it all went out the window. I know Ryan would want me to keep at it, its just hard. Right now I feel like I'm living to die. Each day I wake up and think, one day closer to seeing Ryan.
I need to try to start livnig to live. We are going to join a grief support group to find out exactly how we do that. Right now I just dont want to be happy. I want to feel the pain he did, the fear he did, I want to feel it all...all the time. Dont ask my why, I cant explain it. I just miss him so much.
I'm not quite at my heaviest but I'm close enough. I hope everyone can find their way here because we had a great group going!
I'm looking forward to getting back at this with all of you again!
Pam

Welcome Ejoyce as well. I'm really glad you stopped in. I so miss the accountabilty group of days gone by. For me it really was a great support group. I hope others join in as well.
Got to get ready for work but I'm looking forward to seeing you around.
