Hi All,
What a heartbreak it is for me to be missing posting & chatting with you all for so long. I have been too sick to even get to the computer. It's a combination of chronic respiratory & sinus infection and migraines, etc... that has all gotten unbearable. I think it must be a result of the mold exposure I experienced for so long. Those of you who've known me for a while know that this has gone on for far too long. It's getting a tad old, by now!
I'm finally seeing a Naturopath this Tuesday, since mainstream medicine has no answers for me, yet. I'm hoping that I can learn things to help me work on getting much better and be back sharing things with you again very soon.
I miss you more than I can say!

I'm so sorry! Quick recovery wish!
Take care of yourself. This has been going on way too long. You need to worry about your health.
You poor sweet girl.
Wishing you much health.
We miss you but completely understand!! Just take care of you and we will wallow in all the creativity you have shared with us up to now! Prayers for health and peace...blessings to you!
Hi Mel,
I wish you the very best of luck with finding help. I'm so sorry for your suffering. You have a great talent and I'll miss seeing your creations. Get well soon! All the best, Mary
Get well soon!
As someone who has dealt with illness due to mold for many years, I can sympathize. I will keep good thoughts that you find the right doctor and treatment soon. We miss you.

Sad to learn this news. I wish you to find courage necessary to overcome this test. Take time that it is necessary to remake you a health and don't worry; I will be there, like all your faithful admirors, the day when you will return to share your wonderful work with us. Courage. Amicalement.
Make sure you go through your house and get ALL the mold out. Check your toilet tanks, your bathtub and sink drains and overflows. Mold hides there and we don't even think about it. Then there are house plants. Check your crawl space and attic as well. My daughter had an awful problem, sick for months and then they found black mold in the attic of the apartment they were in. Now, all it takes it a little mold on something like a peach and she starts to get sick. I feel for you Mel and pray for your speedy recovery.
Oh, I hope things get easier for you soon!
I am going to miss you so much. You put so much work into this blog, you deserve a rest. I hope you get better soon. I hope you get better soon so you can get back to us. You will be missed. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Mel, I hope Tuesday brings you some answers, or at least starts you on the path to recovery or to a point you can be with much less pain. We miss you so much.
Sorry to hear you are still not feeling well...please take care of yourself and we will still be here when you are better.I will send you lots of positive and healing energy sweetie !!!
Great option; hope you are able to
find some help there. Acupuncture
sure is a great support during these
time when our bodies are weak. Sure
will miss you but take care!
oh poor Mel... I`ve been reading your website for quite a while now and read too often that you`re not well.
I had the same problem and I know that it's really annoying if you think: "now its getting better and I can make everything I want to again" and then... you're sick again.
I wish you a soon recovery and a doctor who knows how to help you...
I am convinced that a huge part of the bloggers/ cardmaking/ paper crafting world is thinking of you. :)
Take care!
Hugs from Germany

Awww, Mel! Don't you worry about us...taking care of yourself is FIRST priority! I am so sorry you are still having to deal with all of this. I hope a visit to the Naturopath can give you some relief somehow. For now, lots of cyber "hugs"!!! Get better soon...

I have followed your blog for so long without posting a comment. I know you have been sick on and off for a long time. Please know that I am praying for your complete healing, so you can get back to making us laugh and sharing your incredible creativity with us all...warmly, willow
Wishing you a quick recovery. I'm so sorry you're feeling poor.
Hugs to you,

Take care of yourself and know we will be waiting for your return when you are up to it. I have big time allergies too. Hang in there. Hugs from Michigan
I hope you can get this all taken care of. We'll all miss you. I'll be praying for you.
Hope you get to feeling better soon! Let us know what you find out -- my asthma/bronchial problems are getting worse every year! I'd love to find something that works better than the meds I've been prescribed!
Get well soon... i'll miss your posts...
I miss you, too, but you take care of yourself and get well - that's what's important!!
Hi Mel -
You do what you need to honey. As someone who suffers from chronic sinus infections, bronchitis and once in a while, migraines, I fully understand. The constant coughing, stuffiness, nose blowing and general feeling crappy, really does get you down and it never seems to end. For me it starts when there is an extreme change in the temperature. Has gotten so bad, I've developed asthma now. So, dear girl, you need to do what you can to take care of yourself.
Elaine Allen
I too suffer from migraines and know how debilitating they are!
I REALLY enjoy your blog, and hope you can find something to help you feel better soon!
Mel. Get well soon. I am currently recovering from a severe respiratory infection so I really know how you feel. Bless your heart. Take car of yourself a get well soon. Hugs
praying for you kiddo! hugs
Mel...just worry about Mel for now...you're missed but you need to focus on getting well!!! Hope the Naturopathic doctor works for you! I had to take my son to one because mainstream medicine wasn't working for us either and it worked wonders...(it was a different reason than what you're going through) but I have more faith in these doctors than I do the regular ones!!! Get well soon!!!
Good luck, my niece had the same symptoms and eventually it got better, but it seemed to take quite a while and she saw many doctors and had a lot of tests done. Never did figure out exactly what it is. I hope you get better real soon.
I'm sorry to hear you're feeling badly! Get better quick!
Hugs,
L
You will be in my prayers! Take care, get well, and come back soon! We will miss you, too!
I hope you will feel much better soon! :)
Hi Mel,
I'm so sorry that you are suffering with so much pain. I hope you are able to find some relief soon. Have you had your head scanned (migranes)? A few years ago I suffered from terrible headaches for months at a time; then one day I got the worst head explosion of my life & it sent me to the ER. The doctors found a brain aneurysm that ruptured. My headaches were caused by the aneurysm which lead up to the actual rupture. Anyway, I tell everyone I know to get an MRI or CAT scan if they have constant headaches. We will miss you but your health is our priority too! Take care..Vina
I am very sorry for you. I also suffer from migrrains almost everyday so I understand you very well. Take care of yourself.
Mel....I'm sorry...Good luck with your medical treatment and PLEASE take care of yourself...
I'm a fan of your work...I'll miss you...
Get well soon!
Hugs...Lou from Venezuela

I have only recently discovered your blog Mel so I am sorry to read today that you have not been well for a while. I hope the naturopath has lots of answers for you and that you are soon on the road to a speedy recovery. Take Care Mel!

Hi Mel! I'm believing you'll find the right doctor that has the right medicine for you very soon. But most importantly I'm believing the promise of 3 John 2 for you...that God wants you to prosper and be in health ABOVE all things! That's my vision for you....you do so much for us with that great "heart of giving" of yours the least I can do is keep you in my prayers, right? Bless ya~
Please, just take care of yourself..it sounds like you have been really dragged down with the symptoms and I'm happy your seeking alterative measures..Get well soon!
Take care and get well soon.
We will all be here when you return Mel. Love your work and my thoughts are being sent your way for a speedy and healthy recovery *huge hugs*

So so sorry to hear that you're still experiencing health issues, dear Mel. I'm sending positive vibes for a solution and big hugs.
Have you seen a pulmonologist that specilizes in critical care? They are the only reason I'm still her, I always suffered as you do from those things then when I was referred I found I had poor lung function due to my arts, hobbies, and all of the rest, my lungs, bronchial tubes and sinuses were damaged. I'm on meds and an oxygen machine now and I am limited but I have not suffered the way I did for SO many years SO SICK. You might want to look into it and God Bless.

Mel,
I hope you find some awnsers soon, as you are far too sweet to not be feeling well!
I have been thinking of you often, and we miss you at "cuttlebug central" Be well my friend~ Shantaie
I have encountered health issues from these also.
Please don't worry about your blog right now, just concentrate on resting, reserving your energy to heal your body. I wish you good health very soon!!
Besides Mel, there is enough awesome things to read and learn on your blog to keep us all coming back while you try to look after yourself. Take good care of yourself!
Argh, those sinuses! I finally got relief using a product called Xlear (like clear). I haven't had a sinus infection for several years and have been able to cut way back on decongestants. Good luck and take care.
Mel get better!! I am thinking about you!!
I am so sorry Mel you have suffered such a while with this. Let us hope there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
