    Good afternoon everybody,

    I can't tell you how much I've missed everybody. I've been trying to reach out just about everyday but things have been difficult. Especially the past few weeks. Shawna hasn't been herself. She's been really run down and fatigued. Her new doctor is suspecting another internal infection. Her pain levels are getting worse again and life has been really hard. We're hoping that he is wrong and with all the blood they took today we should know in a few day's.

    This year has been very very tough and it has taken its toll on my wife and I. I've been struggling with some depression and anxiety. We're both worried about the last back surgery on the horizon. The worry is over infection. Shawna's body is really run down. This roller coaster needs to come to an end at some point so she can get her life back. I'm so exhausted watching her be in pain all the time.

    Anyways that's the best I can do right now. I'll get on here soon when things are going a little better. Thank you all for your continued support. You have no idea how much it truly means to us.

    Thank you for still being here.

    Ahh I'm sorry John to hear about this. It's not easy to read about all the pain that Shawna is in, so I can't even imagine how hard it is for the both of you. Stay strong!!!

    You two are in my thoughts daily, and I'm sending good vibes your way, for positive results and some good news soon!! You have tons of support here, and great people routing for you both!!

    Much love!!
    The thing I like most about time is that it's not real. It's all in the head. Sure, it's a useful trick to use if you want to meet someone at a specific place in the universe and have tea or coffee- but that's all it is- a trick. There is no such thing as the past. It exists only in the memory. There is no such thing as the future. It exists only in our imagination. If our watches were truly accurate, the only thing they would ever say is "Now". That's what time it is. It's "Now". - Damien Echols

    Hi John,
    So sorry to hear Shawna is having such a hard time now and I know that means you are too. I know circumstances are very different, but has anyone helped you with nutritional boosts for Shawna? We really changed our way of cooking and eating to build up Sammy...maybe her doctors can suggest things. Wish I could help more...LOVE AND HUGS

    Wow another infection huh? I'm soooo sorry to hear that. Lets hope she gets the RIGHT amount of antibiotics from the start this time and they can blast that infection right out of her body for GOOD so she can get well and have that back surgery.

    Sending all kinds of positive vibes and best wishes your way!
