What you said about Sheila asking about me in the mornings touched me right in the heart and I am blessed to have her there for me in spirit! You two have been the sweetest two people but it often takes those going through awful times to understand others having trouble and be such great support. I thank you both and continue to pray for you both. Hoping and praying for better times ahead for all of us.........

Hi, Jeanie.
Prayers are all we really have when life is scary. Guess what? Yesterday, Sheila was able to tolerate 2.5 mg twice. She had some nausea, some dizziness, but she tolerated it.
Jeanie, I told Sheila what you said, and she said, "That just makes me feel so blessed". She said she will always be there for you in spirit.
We think you are one of the sweetest people we have been blessed to "meet" via the 'Net.
Yes, it really does take often take those going through tough times, to truly understand others going through tough times.
She feels so bad that you have to go through so much prep before your colonoscopy. A number of years ago, I took her to Cleveland Clinic on the advice of her former G.I. Doc. Well, they put her through cleanses 3 days in a row, and she refused to leave our girls at home. So, I waited in the car with them. On the 3rd evening, while she waited for the G.I. Doc, the entire staff went home. The G.I Doc was in another exam room, laughing with a patient, and Sheila was in tachycardia, laying across two chairs in the exam room. The nurse knew she was in tachycardia, and left.
When people tell us they want to be referred to Cleveland Clinic, we tell them, it's changed. Even the employee's refer to it in a not so nice manner.
