Thanks everyone, I really appreciate your kind words and thoughts. Karen is right, no, you cannot live without a pancreas. And they rarely do implants. But I'm just hoping it won't come to this. The enzyme levels when I went into the hospital a few weeks ago were 12 times normal. Now one is normal, and the other is 1300 (supposed to be around 300) But at least it is going down. Somehow it is related to my polycystic ovarian syndrome, because everytime I take something for that it happens. The problem is, nobody knows WHY.

Yes I might be getting a puppy. *grin* You may all think I'm crazy, but I've wanted a husky my entire life...so I'm going to get that breed. I've looked at 4 different pairs of pups. They are all expensive. The one breeder was really nice, and seemed to know a lot about the breed. Her adult dogs were just gorgeous. A tad pricey though. The pups I actually liked the best were $100 cheaper, but they don't have the AKC (which I'm not sure if it really matters anyway) and they were male. Not that I have anything against males (both my dogs are) but I just thought a female would be a bit smaller. Who knows, I guess it depends on the dog.

A swamp cooler is a crappy device the poor people who don't have central air use. It's supposed to cool it down some, its kind of like a big fan thing in the ceiling..I believe it uses water to cool. It's working now, I don't know why it quit on us yesterday. Not that it does any good. OMG, today we had to drive in a little old car, stuck in bad traffic on the freeway....for 1 1/2 hours....it overheated...had to have the heater on high to cool it down....and the temp was 104 degrees today also...imagine sitting in an oven....

K I'll stop blabbing now.......
