Thursday's Treasures Week 72

My oldest son, 9 years old, was diagnosed with Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis last Friday.  He has been having a lot of pain and swelling in his knees, one worse than the other.  His back, ankles, wrists and fingers also have been causing him pain.  He was put on NSAID's over 3 weeks ago.  The doctor increased the dose last week when he was diagnosed.  Yet he still has pain and now, his tummy hurts from the medicines.  I have to find an alternative..I cannot bear to hear his heartbreaking moans all day and all night.  I have had arthritis over 30 years.  I know his pain.  I hate his pain.  I would gladly take it away and add it to mine if I could.  We hope, we pray, we look for ways to comfort, we listen, we hug, we give meds, we hear cries, we wait to see what tomorrow brings....

Please hang in there with me...I'm not ignoring you.   I'm close by and will definitely be  sharing and commenting as often as I can.  ~smile~   Did you hear my secret?  I'm having a giveaway sponsored by Lodge Manufacturing!!!! I love all of their cookware and this one  is absolutely amazing.  Are you ready for this?  It is their  15" Seasoned Steel Skillet!!!!  I know!  It is fantastic! I am so excited!!!!!!  Be certain to check back often.  I'll open the giveaway for entries sometime in the next two weeks. Follow me on Google Connect, Facebook, Pinterest, Google + (which, I know nothing about, by the way) Twitter, email, RSS Feed...All are on the right side, you may need to scroll up or down to find them all ----->>>>>>> see?  Pick one or pick all!  Just be certain you are following me in some way or fashion so you don't miss out.  Now, on with the party!  Love and HugS!

Please add a direct link back to your post you link up.  Either with Thursday's Treasures button or text link.  I am always thrilled to pick out your fantastic links to be featured.  It is disheartening to see one I want to feature, go to your blog, only to see there isn't a link back.  A link back shows you are excited to be sharing with us and also have a chance to be featured!  I'd love for you to share the post you link up on facebook.  That way, your fans get another view of your amazing post and you are also inviting them to share on and view Thursday's Treasures.  And, (you knew that was coming, didn't you?) it is also easier for me to share on facebook, which is automatically shared on twitter when I do.  If you don't have a facebook page, no worries...I share those that are not on facebook each week also.  Maybe you could share on pinterest?  It's a Win-Win all the way around.  

Some of the many wonderful links shared.  You know I wish I could feature them all.  If you are featured, please grab my "featured on" button!  







Y'all know I love beautiful Joan of Chocolate, Chocolate and More! Please follow her here on facebook and her blog. You'll be so happy you did! Don't forget to check out the features to see if you are there. 
Have you met lovely Christie of Food Done Light? She is amazing and I know you will love her, her blog and her facebook page, too. Please go over and follow her on both and see if you are featured on her blog. 

Rules, yeah, I know. 
Link to your original recipe, craft or tip and photo directly, not your blog. 
Don’t forget to link back to my post, or blog, with either a text link or our new button, directly on your post or party page. We are sorry but without a link back, you cannot be featured. 
Please follow my blog, facebook, pinterest, twitter, e-mail, rss...you get it. Whatever is your favorite way to follow to stay up to date. Please do the same with my lovely co-hosts, Joan and Christie. By linking up to this party you are giving permission for us to use your photo on facebook, Google+ and other social media to promote Thursday's Treasures and you, with proper link credit given. Please make sure all photos you link up are your own.
Share as many recipes as you like just as long as you haven’t shared them here before. The party is open all week.
Please visit others...they appreciate it as much as we do.
Leave a comment, I love when you stop by.
Y'all have a beautiful week. Be good to yourselves and each other.
