Welcome to Chimmers sauna!!!  At six pm it has cooled down to the high eighties. The weatherman said tomorrow will be hotter yet.Today I went to my dr for the medical clearance.His mom works for him and she`s really nice.When I  found out I have cancer I called her to thank her for "making" me go to the new ob/gyn.I believe that she saved my life.I had a D&C two years ago and was in no hurry to go back but she insisted.(& insisted & INSISTED *S*) Today she asked if I wanted to step on the scales.You should have seen the look on her face when I said no LOL Hey I was just being honest! *S*  After I talked to my dr I had an ekg,chest xrays & blood tests.My dr is concerned because I`m very anemic.   They took nine  vials of blood & I told the woman if I wasn`t anemic before I am now.The next step is going to the sleep clinic & lung specialist. Once this is all taken care of  my dr  wants to test my thyroid.At last something to look forward to LOL!!! This weekend we are taking the boys to the drive in.I luv going there!! My bday is Friday and this is what I wanted to do.I might go to the casino in the morning so I`ll be rich enough to buy snacks at the drive in.One of the best parts of going is taking oodles of snacks and getting a slushie in the puppy container!! Hey don`t forget you are talking about a person who counts her Mimi Bobeck doll as one of her treasures!! Big Hugs!!

You sound great! Keep up that positive attitude...your a inspiration to all. I was anemic also when I was diagnosed. I had to go to the Chemo center and have Iron infusions for 5 days...it looks like Rust!

You are great! They say attitude has a lot to do with your recovery. And as you know laughter is the best medicine. Laugh and love as much as you can. Do as the Drs say and good luck with everything. Happy Birthday early. I case I do not get to tell you on Friday. I hope all of your wishes come true. Have a good night and sweet dreams.

If I don\'t remember to say it on Friday, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU. I sometimes have a bad memory. I don\'t know if it is just me I\'m pretty tired but I had a very hard time reading the font on this journal. Did anybody else or am I just having trouble with my eyes? Good luck if you go to the casino. My brother and his wife went to Vegas over the weekend for his 50th birthday and did really well. Have a great time! Hugs, Cathy
