    Tuesday, November 18, 2008 | A Breaking News story

    I watched Wizard of Oz last night. I was surprised to find that I am Dorothy. I jumped off the yellow-brick road. Grabbed ahold of a flying-monkey's tail. Direct flight to Oz.

    A few weeks ago I took the  A1C hemoglobin blood test for blood glucose. I have to see the doctor this coming Thursday and I am afraid the news will not be so good.
    What I am really pissed off about is that the doctors neglected to tell me how high risk I was for Diabetes because I have HEP C. I have TYpe II in my family and I am older (58) and could stand to lose a few pounds but the doctors...

    I finally convinced my dad that it's a good idea to eat healthy.
    I think we're going to Six Flags tomorrow for Marc's b-day. Trying to surprise him by bringing his best friend. Fingers crossed.
