You guys are so good at this! My grandmother was moved to hospice last night, so I'm jumping out of my skin every time the phone rings. I know she is ready to go home to the Lord, and I had a good cry over it yesterday when I talked to my mom. However, my tears were also happy because I had the precious gift of time together and will always remember that!

I've never had a stomach bug since being IBS, and my stomach is so confused! I must have been super dehydrated after the bug, but went right back to my supplements without enough fluid soooo everything stopped. Now I'm having acid reflux like crazy and I can't get it to stop and my stomach is trying to make up it's mind to stop or go or cramp or do something....it is bugging me to pieces!

Hubby is at his wits end with trying to make himself write ONE MORE paper and isn't sleeping and the poor kids don't know what to expect from either of us! I'll be so glad when my life settles down! This is nuts!!!

Thanks for listening!

Sorry to hear you are having such a rough time. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I remember when my Mom was moved into Palliative Care I was the same way...I couldn't sleep or eat I was just constantly jumpy...I really hope things will go better for you and you can get some rest. Sounds like you have a good support network and you know we are all here for you

This reminded me of my grandfather. He passed away last summer, but we were all able to have our time with him before that. And he was treated so well by hospice care - those people are amazing! Your grandmother sounds strong and at peace - it's good that you realize and appreciate that. Big hugs!

This is the first message board I've ever been part of, and I'm very thankful for the help I've received with my IBS. But the friendships here have come to mean even more to me, and I want each of you to know that your support, encouragement and willingness to listen mean an awful lot to me! What a blessing each of you are to my life!

No new word from my grandmother, so I'm guessing nothing has changed just yet. Waiting is tough, but necessary.

Thanks again for everything!
