Humira & The Lucky One

I stumbled upon a new blog yesterday, Aspiring Kennedy via Keely from Luxe and Lillies, and saw this video.
I thought y'all might like it.
It's message is especially important as we come upon both Thanksgiving and Christmas and we try to remember what's truly important.
He's up for a spot at Sundance.
What do y'all think?

Also, we got the results from my husband's blood-work back on Monday and found out some really great news.
He doesn't have anything at this point besides acute uveitis.
The bad news...
He tested positive for the HLA B27 gene which makes him significantly more susceptible to an autoimmune disease but at this point they don't detect one..
His Rhuematologist determined that it's only a matter of time before one surfaces and thinks it's imperative that he start on Humira injections as a preventative measure.
WHAT?
Let's go ahead and talk about the well known side affects of this drug...including serious chance of aquiring life-threatening infections and lymphoma.
Basically it gives you an immune system comparable to an AIDS patient.
Really, isn't that what we were supposed to be avoiding to begin with?
He has a very serious decision to make and would LOVE to hear from any of you with any personal experience with the drug.
Just leave a comment or feel free to email me if you'd rather it be private.
Thanks y'all!

Today I'm thankful for...
