Barb Hensongispsaca: For those of you that know me and are concerned, the MRI came back negative so now they are planning to try a nerve block at the base of my skull. Ice packs help me function but nothing takes the pain away and I refuse to become a walking zombie on drugs. Thank you for your prayers and for caring. 'Jasper Hill' is still running rampant in my blood stream but God is good and we are still fighting it. I love you all.

Barb Hensongispsaca: I apologize for not reviewing as I should and not posting as usual. I am fighting a cluster migraine headache that will not respond to medication and no one seems to find the source. It is going on two weeks now and I have an MRI scheduled for Tuesday. I hope to be back reviewing soon. Thank you dear friends

The cats have given me my present of a clean house, no toilet paper spread to the door, no papers spread around and out of order, no nuggets left for me to step on, no cat toys in my path making me think I stepped on a tail, no dry cat food underfoot, no water trailing from the toilet from random thirst that the fountain did not satisfy.
It has been great.
