Kath, sounds like you guys really have it together and are doing all that you can. OK, Ontario is a bit far to go for tea from out here in Southern California. You could come here for wine tasting though (since you and your husband are the adventurous kind!). I did find out about my BONE DENSITY tonight. I have osteoporosis in my right hip (the one that's been hurting so much). Which is totally out of spec for a "young adult". I did double check that the phrase "young adult" applied to a 37 year old, and they said yes...guess that was at least good! Apparently the specialist has gone home and took my file and my BONE SCAN results with her. Uh-Oh. The nurse says I may hear from her tomorrow. Doubt I'll sleep much tonight! I'll drop another note when I hear more. Keep the faith! Jennifer
> Jennifer - I just read your reply to my post that you saw second. I'll be waiting to hear how things go for you. You'll be so sick of collecting pee!!

Mind you, my 24 yr-old daughter went through alot (although she had things happen to her which affected her alot & it's a different situation). She is now in recovery from drugs, alcohol & sex/relationship addiction. I am SO proud of her. She's doing so well & taking such good care of herself now. It gives me hope re: my son.

> I guess the best way you can help is to be there. Your post was enormously helpful!!!! I need a kick in the butt to be FIRM (not my butt! - although maybe that would firm it too!) I think just knowing that you know what I'm going through & are there if I need to spout (babble) helps. I live in Ontario about an hour directly North on Yonge Street from Toronto. I'd love to sit & have tea with you! Oh well.
