Another trip to Manhattan...

We're driving into Manhattan on Monday, and we'd appreciate your prayers. My wife, as adorable as the day we met and fell in love, is dealing with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia and has been diagnosed with Chronic Epstein-Barr (where Mononeucleosis arises), and will be seeing an Infectious Disease specialist. It has been difficult the past several months since she's been on disability and every attempt to return to work has been met with roadblocks...extra visits to doctors to get notes that they already provided; disability held up because someone in Trenton misplaced the paperwork, etc. She broke her radius (still praying for your recovery Edeyn) and is now certified for return to her nursing job. But she isn't sleeping, and has no emotional reserve to return to work; hence the visit to the specialist. In the midst of all this, my tremors have increased to the point where I'll be returning to the larger dosage of medicine, which isn't all that bad. The PTSD/flashbacks have not diminished in frequency, but I'm able to tolerate them; most owing to my wife's support and all of my friends here. I finally have an interview scheduled this week as a Youth Counselor at the local Teen Shelter, so pray if you will, and keep your fingers crossed. You folks are just wonderful, and I am so blessed to have you as friends.

Thanks again for all your support and encouragement...Love you all! Andrea Lena DiMaggio
