June 10th Wed. It's raining

I had a great nights sleep. I still had to get up twice, but went right back to sleep. I actually slept from 10pm until 8:45am. I don't ever get that much sleep. When I finally did get up I decided it was time to go to see the people at Cancer Services. I had mixed feelings about going because all the information I read had to do with Help Groups etc. It's true that they have them, but there more into helping you in whatever way you need help. They have a large warehouse full of all kinds of helpful cancer items. From beds to wheel chairs, wigs, medical supplies. They also have concelers if you need any kind of help at all.

Margo had told me that they also have Ensure and things like that for energy. They gave me some sample cans of different drinks, but because I have diabetes, they don't have anything for FREE. He told me he had tried the drink they sell, but that he didn't much like it. He said to try before you buy. I'll see what it's tastes like Margo!!! He did say that it was very important not to try and loose weight while your on Chemo. He said it will confuse the Chemo. I didn't even know it cared. I do feel hungry all the time and someone else I talked to said they feel the same way. My problem is always finding something that will not effect my blood sugar. Cakes and pie has always satisfied my huger pangs. Ice cream will do the trick also. But those little carrots, as nice as they look, they just don't fill me up.

I feel good today and hopefully all the Chemo symptoms are gone for now. I still have all my hair.

Bill Goan: if you read this and decide not to come and see me I will be pissed and everyone that reads this will no that fact. How do you like those apples.

See ya
