    Dis Breast Cancer Survivors Part IV - GAGWTA

    It has been a really long time since I have posted on the Disboards. I am 44 years old. About 15 years ago my dr found a lump. I had a mammogram and ultrasound and the radiologist said it was nothing to worry about and just said to follow up on 6 months so they could be sure it did not...

    7/2014 UPDATE...HELP!!! Optic Nerve Inflammation?

    I also had optic neuritis about 17 years ago. I lost total sight in my left eye within a day. The eye dr also told me he thought it was ms but also told me he sees a couple of cases a year where there is no true explanation for the cause. He scheduled an appt with a neurologist for me. The...

    Where to stay in Biloxi?

    Beau Rivage Casino. Even if you are not gambling it is a really beautiful hotel with a great pool. Just be sure to specify non-smoking if you don't smoke because the smoke will kill you as soon as you exit the elevator on the smoking floors.

    Had to make a decision about life support...

    I am going to try not to make this very long but I don't think I will be successful. I am the youngest of 6 kids. My older sister was 20 years older than me. Our dad died when I was 15 of a massive heart attack and my older brother stepped in and helped my mom support and raise me. My...

    Tinker Bell or Princess

    To those who have run both races, which was your favorite? My friend and I ran the Princess last year. We can only do one of them and we can't decide if to do the Princess again or the Tinker Bell.

    Official 2014 Tinker Bell Half Marathon

    Thanks so much. We will just be doing one so maybe we will still choose Tink since we did Princess last time and I have never been to DL.

    Official 2014 Tinker Bell Half Marathon

    My friend and I completed the Princess in March. She now wants to do the Tinker Bell in January. Will this qualify as coast to coast? I looked on Run Disney and it said you had to complete in the same calendar year but then said if you completed the Princess you were eligible to do coast to...

    Is 3.5 too young to test for Asperger's / Autisim

    Thanks so much everyone. She had the appt today and was given the referral. The dr said he really does not think that is it but gave her the referral anyway. The dr is the same pediatrician my niece went to 25 years ago. She said all he did was a wellness check up and brought her up to date...

    Is 3.5 too young to test for Asperger's / Autisim

    Dr's appointment is at 1:00 today. Hopefully she gets a referral. I can't imagine she would not. It also turns out that the mom of one of her friend's is involved in a program at their public school involving children with special needs. She is checking into that also. I went ahead and...

    Is 3.5 too young to test for Asperger's / Autisim

    I am really not sure now exactly what my niece was asking the dr to check for. I think up until this time she was just telling him she was hyper and maybe had adhd. She did call the dr yesterday after I mentioned everything to her and he said bring her in on Friday. He will do a very quick...

    Is 3.5 too young to test for Asperger's / Autisim

    I spoke to my sister today and she said that my niece was going to call and ask for a referral to a child psychologist. I will call her tonight to see if she did. I think both my sister and niece were in denial that there was a problem until I brought it up so I don't think my niece really...

    Is 3.5 too young to test for Asperger's / Autisim

    My niece has a little girl who is 3.5. She is super smart but there are definitely signs that there may be a problem. She refuses to make eye contact. When she was a toddler she would literally close her eyes if you talked to her so she would not have to look at you. Now, she just turns...

    Tell me everything i need to know for the Princess Half Marathon

    I trained all year for this past race. The one thing I wish I had done differently was train outside (I live in Louisiana) to prepare myself for the heat and humidity. I trained on an indoor track at my gym. I also did not properly fuel. My friend that ran with me ate a power bar through the...

    Official 2013 Disney Princess Half Marathon Thread - Take 2

    I am so nervous that I think I am giving myself panick attacks. My lower shin is so tight sometimes. I can never predict when it is going to bother me. This week of all weeks it is bothering me. It took a good three miles last night before it became bareable and I could run at all on it. I...

    Official 2013 Disney Princess Half Marathon Thread - Take 2

    I am really starting to freak out about the half. I have never done anything like this before. I am far from in shape and I am 42 years old. I am participating with a friend and we plan on walking with a little running. We both average about a 14.3 minute mile with running a a 15.0 minute...
