We got to Boston and back today. What a long day......

It’s a Catch 22. According to the doctor, it looks like I do have mastocytosis. It’s not good to have, OTOH, it is a diagnosis. It can be treated some.

He wants to run a couple more tests to confirm the diagnosis, one of which NYS does not permit because it considers it not reliable, although the dr. disagrees. Thank you NYS, for protecting us from ourselves.....>:(

So we need to figure out some way of getting the test done without going to Boston again. Please pray that God would lead in that area.

The trip went swimmingly. We have no trouble with the traveling, or finding the place, or anything.

I have an appointment to go back in Dec, which could be tough weather wise.

Time to crash and burn.

Thanks so much for the prayers.

Still praying for you. Wish I could help in some practical way!

Knowledge is power. Having a diagnosis is the first step. I had to look up mastocytosis, even though I clicked on that link. I’m a little baffled about all the allergies to food. So, does that mean you have issues with the stomach too? (since it said in rare cases it affects the stomach lining and the intestines)?

Notre père, qui êtes aux cieux!
Que votre nom soit sanctificié. Que votre règne vienne.
Que votre volonté soit faite, sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donnez-nous aujourd'hui notre poindre ce jour.
Pardonnez-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi a ceux, qui nous ont offensés,
et ne nous soumetez pas à la tentation, mais délivrez-nous du mal.
Car c'est à toi qu'appartiènne, le régne, la puissance et la gloire, pour les siècles des siècles.
Amen.

Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)
