    skiing up to 12, 680 ft

    I live in an Altitude of about 6500 ft. and I can tell a difference in just going 1000 ft. higher. At that point I need to be on oxygen. All I can tell you is that it really depends on how well his lungs are at this point. My lungs used to be great and I never felt that big of a difference...

    I want children!

    I think that no doctor should make a decision like that for anyone. But I do think that you have a responsibility to yourself and to your future children to weigh all of the possibilities and even then you can't possibly know exactly how your body will respond to pregnancy. My only...

    3 Reasons I am thankful for Prednsione... Join IN the laugh

    I got a kick out of this! I have only been on steroids for one period of time for about 2 months. My running joke with my husband is that If you can't find me at 4 in the morning I am just over at my parents exercising. Just call me the energizer bunny! Emilee

    Don't know what to do

    I have to agree with Diane and Melissa, I just love to prove my docs wrong. They too beleived that I couldn't get back into the 50s and low and behold I hit 54 so then they started talking about the 60's. That would be a blessed day and I am up for the challenge. It absolutely takes hard work...

    Do you share a room in the hospital?

    The "Animal" Game...

    I would say that I am a Chimpanzee! Very protective of my babes, loving, affectionate, capable of learning new things and if provoked I will attack. I am also very fun loving and a little bit crazy like a monkey. My husband also calls me a monkey because I pick at stuff <img...
