Howdy ya'll. I put some pic's in the library. Laura is slowly getting better. (at least she is smiling more) She cannot have any food or drink by mouth. Not sure of the correct term, but this morning, they put camera down her throat and reported that it is not above her large intestine. While she was under they also installed a shunt in her main artery because the veins in her arms were starting to hide. They also started a new antibiotic called remicade, not sure what it is, but it is supposed to be one of the newest for colitis. They said it cost about $3000.00 per treatment. Thank God for insurance. Anyway, I would also like to mention that my other daughter Melissa has been a great help. She is 13, and since my wife has been gone, she has step up and started cleaning and doing laundry. Not sure what yet, but I need to do something special for her. Robert
