We're in a real heat wave here -- its been 40 - 42 C everyday for the past week -- ugh!! It was really the pits the other night when there was a power failure all over the city -- they say it was because of all the people using air conditioning! I'd much rather be cold for you can always put on more warm clothing, but there is only so much you can decently take off when trying to get cool!! I hope you are enjoying a lovely cold winter. Best wishes for the new treatment that you will be undertaking later this month!! I look forward to a report on how it goes. Best wishes for the New Year -- hopefully this will be a real step forward towards a long term remission. Cath
Happy New Year Cath;
We didn't have a white Christmas but we did have a white New Year's. About 6" outside. No need for any A.C. this weeks low's are in the teens. I don't mind the snow, in fact I enjoy shoveling it, but the darn cold. I must be getting old. None the less, I couldn't imagine moving somewhere without a nice mix of the seasons.
I Mom was over last night and mentioned that she saw on T.V. that Geraldine Ferraro (female Vice President candidate many moons ago) has MM. In fact, she's been battling it for ELEVEN YEARS. I believe that's a motivating story!
Before I close, I want to thank you and Melanie and Carol for your kind words. We will find a cure for this.
I wish everyone in our far reaching family a happy, healthy and positive New Year.
Kevin
