We gout another problem

Dear Mama,

    That's not a typo, we really gout another problem. Or should I say, we have another problem with gout.

    As you know, Mama, Ralph and Edgar are having recurring gout attacks. Tonight, Edgar's was worse. It's painful, Mama. It's started this morning, and it has gotten worse this evening. He said he was feeling the pain while he was at work today. I'm thankful he was able to make it home safe.

    They are taking medicine, Ralph and Edgar, for their gout, Mama. But it's just a pain reliever that they have to take when the gout attacks, and lately, they have been very painful. Ralph has it for more than 10 years now, probably. While Edgar's started last year. I hope they'll be free from this problem soon, Mama.

    Ralph still hasn't found a new job, Mama. He's still waiting for feedback from those he have applied before. I'm praying he finds a stable one soon.

    Angel discussed with me her plans about her health, Mama. She said she wants to see another dermatologist and get second opinion about her skin problem, and she's also planning to see a psychiatrist. We both agreed that she should see her doctor first, an internist, and she should tell him her plans about the dermatologist and the psychiatrist.

    That will be all for now, Mama. Praying for better future for us. Please help us pray.

    I miss you, Mama.

    I love you.
