Hi All,
Just wanted to apologize for being MIA. I'm still around, but find it difficult at times to keep up with all that is required of me in life. Healthwise, I've had ups and downs, but all in all I'm doing OK.
Big shout out. and warm welcome to all the new members I've missed personally welcoming to our sclero family. And to all you oldies but goodies, I do hope you've been doing as well as can be expected and then some!
Still here...

Hello Sweet
Nice to hear from you and I hope we hear more! Your knowledge and experience of scleroderma and other autoimmune conditions is invaluable as is your willingness to share it along with you encouraging demeanour.
Take care.

Hi Sweet,
Nice to hear from you. I guess you haven't been our way lately - not worth it at the moment anyway. We are having so much rain we are all growing webbed feet.
Take care of yourself
Best wishes from downunder

HI Judy,
No I haven't been to NZ for a year. My son and his family moved back! So unless they head that way again to visit her family, I can't see going again. A friend of mine has been living in OZ for the past year, and it sounds like their weather has been completely off as well! Cheers!

Hi Sweet! I'm a newcomer and glad to meet you. I've been on the autoimmune carousel with sclero added to the mix recently, even though the SCL-70 test came back positive a couple of times about 7 years ago. I'm having a bad time with the gastro-intestinal manifestations and neuropathy in my fingers and toes. I've had Raynaud's for a number of years and my hands are terribly swollen.
I find it so encouraging to encounter people who are doing well so I'm glad you are!

Thank you Shelley, I'm working on it! I will keep trying.
Teatime, I so enjoy your posts, and I love your name. Anytime is always a good time for tea!
I can completely understand your gastro-intestinal problems. It's one of my worse symptoms. I wish I didn't have to spend so much time wondering each day if things will "work"
Love to everyone.
