    Saturday, October 11, 2008 | A Rambling story

  • I'm finding it harder to sleep or find any interest in it.

    Saturday, October 18, 2008 | A Rambling story

    I read that one of the by-products of Addison's is the fact that you don't sleep very well.  Same for Fybro.  I guess that I must be living backwards.  I love the quiet at night and also the fact that I can do more at night.  But I don't get tired or anything.  Right now I'm not tired.  When I do fall to sleep then I sleep like someone whom hasn't...

    Friday, October 24, 2008 | A Rambling story

    Well now that Cathy is getting better I have to write something in here and I'm hoping that she reads.  Remember the Guy that I told you about that was going to have the drug party and was trying to drink enough that night so that it would kill him?  He was on here remember?  I took him off as a friend and today when I got the activity for DS I read an entry by his boyfrie...

  • The Shadow

    Tuesday, May 19, 2009 | A Rambling story

    Do tell...how is it?  Living under the shadow of cancer every single day of your life?  The weight of the shadow must be immense, shoulder breaking, heart breaking, and spirit breaking?  I wonder, everytime you go for a test, does the shadow come closer to you?  Like the time of day changing?  And when the test comes back in your favor, does the shadow shorten and become ...

  • A Year Revisited for it's Green Smile!!!

    Tuesday, November 17, 2009 | A Rambling story

    I just noticed that todays date last year also has a bright green smiley face in my journal, so of course, as I rarely use that face, I had to check it out........... our dear friend Linda Butterfly was involved then as well !
    Is it any wonder she is so dearly loved here at D.S, and that we are glad to circle the wagons when we hear that she needs support? We do love you Linda, and are still pray...

    Carol took the Which Bible Verse resonates with you? quiz and got the result: Psalm 19:14..
    Psalm 19:14: Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of m...
