Hi Lori,
Thanks so much for sharing your story with me.
And by the way, you had previously emailed the group
asking who wrote the post regarding all the
advertisers,...well, that was me.
I hope I didnt offend anyone by the post. It was one
of my (what I call ) "sour lemon" days.
Since Ive had RSD, I have days where my happy ,
smiley, unicorn and rainbows old life is so far gone,
that Im just this sour lemon.
So I joined the group because Im 39 years old and had
this amazing physical life less than 2 years ago, and
deveoped this strainge disease and I could find no one
to talk to about it. Friends dont understand, family,
...Im sure you understand.
I do hope I can learn more than the doctors have told
me, and this is why I had asked about remission,
because not one doctor ever even offered that
possibility.
So thank you for taking time out of your day to
correspond.
Love and Light,
Jolene
