happy consumer, sad boy & Nibs

Mm, Pfaffaffaffaffaff. Mm, hardware firewalls with VPN pass through. It beats my software firewall soundly. (The hardware firewall is actually part of a wireless router. Note the foreshadowing.)

Took yesterday off because it's spring break and the Wendling's home. Despite the gorgeous weather we had to skip the cherry trees for now because he's sick. Aww. Appalling timing.

Chronic illness is getting Nibs down worse than it has in years. I wish I could go "Zoot!" and undepress her. I never know what to do around depressed people. Come on, rituximab.

gah. Nibs was doing really well for a spell, wasn't she? I hope she pulls out of this quickly for her sake and yours.

Well, since she was dignosed with rheumatoid arthritis in October of 2002, probably the best time she had was just after she got on Humira (adalimumab) in late 2003. The trouble was, Humira stopped working, probably because she developed antibodies to it. Her RA has never been completely under control the way it is with most patients most of the time these days. Ten hours of sleep a day and thirty waking hours a week on the couch has been the norm pretty much since she came down with it.

I'm sorry hon. For some reason I thought you guys had had some measure of success with a more recent med.
My memory is horrible, and I easily confuse things about the SOs of friends on LJ.

Lots of love to you guys.
