    Yes, dear Candi...

    of all the people I know, you DO derserve a break....criminy!  I didn't realize that you were still fighting the c diff...and now more cellulitus....of course you're feeling drained.  Honey, I'm just so sorry you're having to go through all these things with virtually no break between them.  Sending prayers your way....and keeping you tucked....

    A Break

    Oh, no. It must seem like you are a lightening rod for odd maladies. May God hold his hand of healing over you and bring you healthier days.

    peace

    Candi,

    Maybe, stay at the lake of little longer (just kidding).  You have been walking a pretty tight rope lately.  Hopefully, this Labor Day will buy you a little calmness and a needed break.

    Another pocket.

    Matt

    If only

    If only we could grant your request.  You have definitely been put through the wringer, over and over.  All I can say is try to rest and build yourself up.  I am glad you had a good week at the lake, nice memories to reflect on.  God bless you.
