Oh you poor thing. Your sister's condition though is treatable and now that she knows she can take measures to look after herself. How are things for you? I mean just you. Are you ok? How is Karma doing? I hope you are both still coping and that Karma is thriving. Still sending you all lots of positive vibes and I wish I could give you all my strength to help you thru.

thanks soooo much for your support tammy.. its nice to know that there are people out there who care. :)
Im doing ok.. cant really say much more than that though.. kinda hard to know how to feel when you are stuck in limbo... (not knowing what will happen) Karma is doing really well.. I think we found the reason for her colic and we are gonna put the theory to the test.. :) oh, congrats on zak starting school!! (time to yourself for a few everyday!!)

HOw is Luc doing? Have the doctors any idea as to what his recovery time will be? Is he going to be back to 100%? Too bad he wasnt being transfered here. You would have a place to stay with the baby if he were and I would watcher her when I was home so you could be with Luc. I am so proud of how well you have coped. I wish I knew you guys!!!! All the best

actually, they cant say anything for sure. He may never get any better than he is now, or he could make a full recovery. They also cant say for sure how long it will take. Could be years or could be sudden and within a few months. I know he will be back eventually. I cant see him not being in my life and being able to talk to me, etc. :) thank you so much. You have no idea how much your support has helped :)

I am happy the little I have been able to do has helped you. If you need any help with the legalities of anything(Power of attorney, access to financial info or anything) you should try seeing if you have Law Phone or Dial a Law. If you are having some issue with the POA stuff you could have one of Luc's Dr's declare him legally imcompetant for now and a judge can grant it and you wont need a lawyer. If you ever ever need anything call me.(send me an email and I will give you my #) I can call you back as I get free long distance. Karma is adorable and she does look like her dad. You are a great mom and you are doing a wonderful job being mom and wife thru this difficult time. You are an amazing person and I count myself blessed for having ever had the opportunity to intereact with you. I believe Luc will come back to you and Karma. Just keep Faith and Hope alive. It is ok to falter sometimes-just dont be too hard on yourself.

Hey Andrea, I had a tachycardia for a long time and it began to cause some discomfort as I got older. It got pretty scarey. The treatment was very simple and I've never had any problems since. Don't worry! Tracy
