Hi Everyone, Sorry I've been MIA again for awhile. "Life gets in the way", as they say. I'm doing quite well weight wise, so that's good. I'm attending a workshop called on Mondays called "Living Well With Chronic Conditions", & I'm learning some good things, but it's taking a good bit of my "free" time. A ReadyRide van picks me up & brings me back, so I can use my power chair. This is the 1st time I've used it except around home, as we don't have a wheelchair rack on our car. I am doing better at recording my daily food intake, but I keep it in a notebook in my kitchen, not on here. This way I can do it while I'm cooking & won't put it off then not do it at all. I was already tracking calorie & carb counts of our foods in that notebook, so I'm just doing more accurate itemizing of each item than before. This seems to be working better for me than trying to do it on here. I've been distracted over the last couple of weeks, after hearing that our middle daughter in Southern California has an ovarian cyst. She called on Friday to say the cyst is starting to hurt. She was at has had an ultrasound, but hasn't heard the results yet. She is an 11 year survivor of both endometrial & thyroid cancer, so this is like re-living a nightmare. But I know that God is taking good care of her, & He will see her through. I'm just having a hard time focusing on anything for very long, & not sleeping too well. That might also be why I've lost more weight than usual. We'll know more of what's going on with her in a week or so, & that should make things easier. Meanwhile I'm just hanging in there, & doing lots of praying. I hope you all have a great week. Hugz, GLAMMER

Thank you so much for your prayers, Kattay, Char60 & Deb_N. It means a lot to me. I could not believe what she told me when we talked day before yesterday. Her "Dr." doesn't believe she had cancer before! It is because she was so young I guess, she was only 25 then. But, whatever his reason it is utterly ridiculous to say he doesn't believe her! To me that is totally foolish & unprofessional, & I wouldn't trust another thing he said. She said yesterday that he'll be the one who operates on her unless she goes to a different Dr. She thought he was just a Dr & not a surgeon. Some surgeon, all he did was give her some vicodin & send her home! I don't think he should be a veterinarian, let alone a surgeon when he's foolish enough to say he doesn't believe she had cancer! Daughter was going to contact Kaiser to get proof of her cancer. I told her I don't want her to even be seen by him again. Yesterday she said her stomach area was hurting worse, even with the meds. I told her to go up to Scripps hospital in La Jolla & they will help her, as they did me many years ago. Sorry for whining & venting, I'm just really frustrated right now. Going to call daughter now & see what her status is. Can't think of anything else.
