Pog and I had a lovely time at the beach visiting family. Arrived back home to a trashed house around 11pm last night…but that's the same state we left it in so no worries. :p He came home from work after only an hour or two because of severe pain, so he's napping now. The…

The doctor visit today was a follow-up on last week’s round of testing. And its official. I have Crohn’s disease. Not a tenative diagnosis, not even the really strong guess they issued: its confirmed twice over. The small bowel study (yay, x-rays!) showed a classic case of symptoms, albeit rather severe, and the final blood…

So, apparently Cyclopskitty is a popular figure, having evoked many squeals of “Its sooooo cuuuuute” in varying levels of squeaky-voicedness. I henceforth dub him Ceekay for short.

I know Michele is gonna be sad for a while, she never likes the re-separation from her parents. They really helped us out with…

Today marks one month since that lovely early morning ER visit, at the end of which (7 hours+) I was given a tenative diagnosis of Crohn’s disease. Its fitting in some fashion that one month later I get the official confirmation from the gastroenterologist, after lots of testing. Reade more if you want to…read more.…

Happy One-Day-Late Birthday, Poggy!  I'm a bad fife.  So…truck is into the shop (please fix it this time x 50), shower curtain is installed in guest bathroom (finally), 3 out of 5 curtains are installed, and I have a moderately tall ladder that may allow me to install the necessary window caulking, thanks to…
