Pat, it may truly be reflux--I was kidding with you. I had reflux and took Prilosec for a year or more and didn't have anymore trouble until the gallbladder rebelled and then I had to have it out. It got really bad, really fast for me and in fact the gallbladder already had gangrene when I had it taken out as an emergency! Well aren't I a downer on here!lol Okay enough about that from me! Pat goes to LNC every Sunday I know for sure. Not sure about if she goes another day or not. I try to come up every other week and go either 1 or 2 days, depending on if I stay the night or how late it is before I get there. I always count my day as "bonus" for the week since it's not something you can depend on. I'm sorry I'm not closer or I'd definitely take a day. That 3 hour trip each way gets really long after a few times! I'm so glad everyone is posting on here now and I meant it when I said it makes my day! Getting on here and reading what is going on with people, makes me feel so much more connected to all of you and that's awesome! Let's please try to keep it up! Gee, I sound like Preacher Judy again! Okay, I'll shut up~! Love to all, Judy
