WHERE IN THE WORLD IS KATHRYN PETERS???

If you are wondering what that slimy bit of photography above is...., it's my stomach!! Lately I've been wondering what has happened to the person I use to know as ME. I have been feeling ill for about a month now (seems much longer). I guess cleaning up day-old vomit at my Dad's place wasn't such a great idea. Two days later I came down with a nasty stomach bug, which seems to be lingering much longer than usual. It comes one day and not the next. I never know! Tests have been done, Doctors have been seen, blood has been drawn, stomach scoped (the technical term is Esophagogastrododuodenoscopy) more tests are going to be done. Frankly, I don't have a great deal of confidence in their tests, but am willing to do whatever if they can get to the bottom of the problem, give me the right treatment and send me on my way. I am really weary of eating the blandest of bland food. Can't wait to chow down on a big thick juicy cheeseburger and chocolate malt!!
Anyway, my apologies go out to all my loved ones who I have let down by missing important events and being a bit of a drag when you're around me. Thanks for the sweet letters, visits, texts, e-mails, phone calls and prayers!!

P.S. If my doctor sons can give me any insight on what they see in those photos. I would really like to know what an "irregular GE junction" is?!

I didn't know that you were still feeling sick! I wish I would have known! I hope that they get to the bottom of it quickly! If it is any consolation the inside of your stomach is super cute!!! xo I love you so!

I'm so sorry, you've been so miserable!!
You've handled it like a champ, and don't apologize for a second.

Kathy! I didn't know you've been so sick! I'm so sorry. We'll be praying over here that the doctors can find out what's wrong and get you feeling better ASAP!
