Dear Diary,
Well, I have had a good week. I have only had pain several of the nights at bedtime where my hipjoint meets my leg and it locked up on me a couple of times during the night when I tried to turn over while sleeping.
I have started walking to a video called "Walk away the pounds" by Leslie Sansone. It has made me feel a little better and I really have to make myself ...1 Recommendation

I try not to look at my health as a day by day thing. Rather, I think back to August whenI couldn't stay awake for more than an hour at a time, and I was so weak I wasn't sure if I could make it to the bathroom.
