:P Hi every one,i have'nt been on this website for ages due to moving house then i had to go into hospital soon after moving for a hip operation,so i did'nt have much time to sit at a computer.
I am waiting to go back into hospital to have my other hip done nothing runs smooth when you have got RA.Any way i have signed the Hydropherapy petition hope it goes well.When i was at the hospital iread an article in the Arthritis magazine about a teenage tennis player called ALICE PETERSON who as RA she has wrote a book about her life whith RA any body with RA will find this book very interesting it is BRILLIANT she has come to be a full time novelist whose condition is contrlled by anti-TNF therepy.

    Hi Rebecca :D

    I have read Alice's book and could not put the book down. I was enthralled. Later I read her other books too, not about RA.

    We also emailed each other for a short time and she signed a heating petition we had going last year and I reviewed one of her books for her as she asked.

    Here's wishing you all the best for your hip op when it happens.

    Take care

    The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.

    Hi Rebecca, welcome to the forum, I have read the a new book by Alice Peterson called "Another Alice", it is an update on her last book, it is an inspirational book, I was feeling down before I read it but it put everything into perspective, I realise that I am not so bad after all, she has written more books I am looking for them also love Jaspercatxx

    :lol: Hi jaspercat,thanks for your reply if you go on Amazon you will find the rest of her books much cheaper than the shops, reading her book makes you want to get your own life back how it used to be have missed so much this last two years could do with a good holiday to start with. love Rebecca

    Hi Rebecca,

    I once read the pioneering heart transplant surgeon Christiaan Barnard's autobiography because he had RA - that was an inspiring read - mind you it was so long ago it's probably out of print now :shock: .

    Luv Legs :D
    Love, Legs x
