- My 12 year old daughter had a favorite pair of sweat pants, black with a pink stripe down the side. The washer ate them. Literally, chewed them up. We are getting a new washer, but I digress. I know she will be really upset. So I went to the...
- Please read this column, even if you are a Barak Obama supporter who really believes in the stimulus plan. Don't let Congress take away our Health Care Rights. Please call your congressmen and senators and tell them to remove this provision from...
- The week between Christmas and New Years, I went in to have a painful tumor removed from my side. The doctor actually found several tumors. He was afraid he did not get them all. The incision site is still sore, so now I am afraid that he didn't...
- There is a security system commercial where a girl is getting on her treadmill and a burgler tries to break in. Of course her ADT system scares him away. But this really bothers me. The chick is at home on a treadmill. She is wearing a sweater...
- My daughter has NF and has had a sudden (less than 6 months)major decrease in vision of her right eye. Could this be an optic glioma and if it is, what do doctors do about it? I also have NF and have never had this.
- So for Labor Day, I made these incredible brownies, with icing and Heath Bar Crumbs on top. I have been pretty good so far, not binging. I just had one last night after dinner and one this morning for breakfast. But there is like half a tray out...
- Sitting in a car repair waiting room for hours at a time, with access to all the junk food I want. Who could not binge in that position? I'll tell you who a normal person! Who could turn down the candy and cookie machine. A normal person!! But...
- In the summer I suppliment my workouts by doing laps in the neighborhood pool. After my laps I always enjoyed floating on my back to relax. I find I can no longer float. I sink. Is this because my fat percentage in lower? Will I be able to...
- I don't think I could stomach ten eggs with mayo at one meal, but I have definately had days when I consumed 9,000 calories. And all this time, I was an olympic swimmer and just didn't know it. lol.
- I know this is going to sound weird, but.... I have been doing weights for my upper body since January. Well yesterday, I just wanted to see if my push ups had improved. I always do "girlie" style push ups. Well, when I got started, I didnt'...
- Okay, if you could choose to be rich, or be cured of NF, which would you choose. You can't have both, one or the other. Me, I would choose the cure. So what do you think? Which lottery would you rather win, untold wealth or cure?
- Isn't it about time for Ted Kennedy to admit that he has NF. Wouldn't it be great for us to have someone like that standing up for us? He has had several large bumps removed from his face, I really think he does have it. Now the seizures. Wonder...
- Is anyone else more apt to binge when the weather is crappy, like rain, cold, blah...? I just can't stand it. I feel like I am ready to crawl out of my skin.
- Okay, so at the marathon yesterday, I met a woman who saw my NF Team shirt and wanted to thank me. I asked if she was on the team even though she was wearing a different shirt. She said no, because that was CTF (Children's Tumor Foundation) and...
- I finished my first marathon today!! It was really hard, but fun. I did not do as well timewise as I wanted to, but I finished it!! Five hours and 58 minutes. Really tired and sore, will probably journal about it later.
