A note from Brandis (Mrs. Graycloud)---
Don’t be alarmed because Robb is okay now; this is just an FYI:
After an illness that seemed like it was going to kill him (in Sept and Oct) Robb’s been told he has an autoimmune disease known by the interim term of “Sudden Inflammatory Response Syndrome”, a non-diagnosis that came with the supposition that it will most likely turn out to be Still’s Disease . Interestingly, the odds of this are 1 in 6 million (!?) but still, it is the doctor’s best guess…go figure.
My husband was actually unable to get out of bed and/or in the hospital for exactly eight weeks, so when I said he’s okay I mean “okay”. He is solidly alive, yet has a lot of physical therapy and nutritional work to do in order to become normally okay again, and he will get there! Lead times are going to be longer than usual!!!
The worst part: he's taking a drug for it that is making his great hair fall out in great big handfuls---even the dogs are upset about this!
I was too overwhelmed to ask for your prayers, extra karma, energy and meditations during this nightmare, but these things would be so helpful now, so if you would, please send Robb a thought from your heart, I know he will feel it, and I will be so grateful. Thank you - B
