Last Friday was a day for miracles

At an undisclosed location, deep in the heart of an unnamed state, Ivy had angioplasy. Why is this such a secret operation??? It's because she has MS. Angioplasty is not an approved treatment for MS. Big Pharm is discouraging studies because it may mean people may stop needing the drugs. The horror! But politics aside, Ivy is seeing dramatic improvement with her fatigue. Read all about it here for the surgery and here for recovery. I don't know much, but I believe patients have the right to make well informed decisions about their health.

Later that night, dear friends had a baby a few weeks early. He's had some lung problems, but he looks adorable and he keeps getting stronger everyday. I can't wait to meet the little guy!
