...and RA and fibromyalgia among other things.

Not doing so well because Hubs and I are downsizing - moving from a single family house to a "manufactured home".

It is 25 to life for premeditated murder or I would be a widow. My Hubs lost my last Orencia injectable and I was left with Enbrel. I had myself switched from Enbrel because it doesn't hardly work anymore. I am in for a ruff week, therefore, and have been crying off and on this evening.

But it will be better.

I keep reminding myself that only a dozen years ago this disease was barely survivable. So, could be worse; could be dead.

Regards from Rosie
