It can be rather dabilitaing, I don't think a lot of people realize just how serious it can be if not treated early! Why are men so stubborn when it comes to going to the dr's??!!  I'm glad you and his parents finally got him the help he needed. I can't believe he had so many bites!! He really is lucky to be doing as well as he is for being bitten so many times!
My mom had awful joints, especially her knees. She has large braces she wears on her legs for the bad days. Its really even a struggle to walk some days. She is too sick to have the knees replaced. She has been doing water therapy and that seems to help a little. Keep your bf active!!
How is your mom feeling today?

Did I mention my mom is stubborn??? Difficult moms can be a challenge, I know you know!!?!
This was kinda my reality check-- my mom hasn't changed a bit, and she's still going to do mom things, cancer or no cancer.

I'm worried to call my mom today, lest she run for the phone. 
I'm sorry about your mom. I know how frustrating it is to get slowed down. The pain is no help either. But water exercise it THE BEST. All docs recommend it for back pain, musculer problems and general exercise. I used to coach swim team in my earlier days, and the shape people can get into is unbelievable!

I think I get the sense of humor from my mother's side. Not cos I've inherited it, mind you. I've had to develop it as a coping mechanism!!! Less messy than burying bodies and cheaper than therapy, I say.
I'm so glad I can share! I need to know SOMEBODY finds this funny. *shaking head*

Hey Sinead!!
Don't feel guilty for laughing, it really is so rediculous, I can't help laughing myself. It soo helps to know you guys see the humor in it too!! Otherwise it's just me!!
I think it's in the mother's gene to make everything as complicated as possible, then to mess it up further by trying to be "helpful." As LauraSue says, "If it's not one thing, it's your mother."
So sorry you have to attend a funeral today. On your day off too to boot, bummer. Think of my police story and smile on the inside. I reccommend the story as an icebreaker at the wake. 
I'm wishing you all my best--
~nelly~
