Hi Sondra, thanks for remembering me, just don't write that much here as I feel like I am out numbered by the "bright ones" and that I don't have anything to give or say to compare. I do pray daily for our plight and ask for God to give a doctor or scientist a burning desire to find out what is wrong, and for wisdom and last not least, a cure. Other than that, I am doing OK, just holding on and hoping for help soon. And what about you, young lady? How are you?

Your input and situation is as important as anyone's and I'm always curious about how other people are and how they and family members are dealing with this disease. I'm not a bright one either. I don't even own a microscope!!! I would love to have one, but we don't have a Radio Shack nearby. I would have to drive to a bigger city and us in this little town never want to drive to the city. I wish I had one though, as I find all kinds of stuff on and around me. Anyway, take care.

Godog, perhaps this can be resolved through our Morgellons Angels group (official name not yet established but I like the one Sue came up with). LB will reimburse the postage for anyone who has an extra microscope they would like to send to Godog. You can handle the address information through PMs and let me know the cost.
Not too many of us here can afford to donate much, but I believe we all have something worthwhile to offer and it's so rewarding to share.

I found a hand held microscope on Ebay for $10.00, it works just as good as the more expensive ones I've tried.

Go to RadioShack they have one that cost $9.00 and is awesome to use - 60 - 100X Microscope and it can fit in your pocket.

Thanks Patti, I think I'll finally just go to Radio Shack and do it. Now, I do have the money. Not so a few weeks ago. But anyway, I just need to break down and make the drive. It's only tenmiles, but it's so hot and I don't have air, so I had been putting it off. I do want one. Then, I'm going to make my dear brother look at the stuff I get off my butt!!!! He refuses to address or even talk about that I'm sick. He thinks I am lazy and crazy. He's a jerk. But I love him and it's important to me that he knows I'm not making this up. Anyway, thankyou, that is very kind of you.

Thanks for all the good advice about microscopes.....anybody who has been looking for one now has several options at very reasonable prices. We don't want to embarrass people and make it sound like they are charity cases. I'm sure that each person in need of something has another item (or area of expertise) that they are more than willing to share. Godog, let us know if you aren't able to find what you need, and stay cool out there!

I'm doing better and it's ok about the charity-case thing. I'm not offended. And this disease certainly can make you poor. I can't even imagine what it has cost me financially. I would hate to know. And now, when I get paid, instead of browsing the makeup aisles and funstuff, I go through the ointment aisles, including the feminine one and the babydiaper-rash and men's jockitch assortment, then head over to the pet aisle to read labels and compare prices!!!!!! Jeeze!!!!!

Godog, you made me laugh out loud about going to the pet section and comparing prices. Who would of ever thought we would be doing this sort of thing. Blessings to you, Chicago Bonnie(zabrubon)

Sondra, Thanks for the being so kind, I appreciate your care. I am doing ok, just praying for a cure. I will call you soon. I just am so tired when I am finished with work, I pratically fall into bed with exhaustion. No one but us understands how tough it is to go out there and make a living and pretend everything is ok. I can't even say anything, otherwise people would think me crazy. OK OK enough of that. I will call you as soon as I can. Love ya, Bonnie
