I received a call yesterday from a pharmacy in Pickwa, Ohio, wanting me to give them my insurance information for a prescription that a Dr. Steidle had called into them. I asked the lady who they were and why would someone from Fort Wayne use a Pharmacy in Ohio. She then explained that they were a very specialized Pharmacy and that they specialized in medicines that were not widely dispensed.

I then explained that I would not give her my Medicare number because it was the same as my social security number. She said there is no need for that, we don't have any drugs that would be covered by Medicare. She then said that all she would do is call the insurance company and see if they would accept this medication. In a couple of minutes she was back and said that they would not accept the charge. I asked her how much it would cost, but she referred me back to the Dr's office to find that information out. If the insurance would not cover it, I guess he was going to try to charge me out of his office. I don't think I'm going to see this guy again, whata think!!

I have not herd anything from either Dr. Rushing or the Chemo office, so I said to Sharon, maybe this was all a mistake and they have discovered that the CT scan was wrong and they are afraid to admit it to me. She didn't think that happened either. I'm not sure what is going on, but we are going to try and get to the bottom of it today. I keep you informed.

Something else happened yesterday that I want all you that follow me, to follow. Maura, my oldest daughter. She has just formed a 501.c3 corporation that will give graffiti artists a chance to get to college. It's called Off The Wall Graffiti. If you go to my FB you can follow the link and become a fan. I think it's a great idea, and she needs fans to be able to get the public interest.

I herd from Tom Whitney, a classmate of mine from a couple of years back, let's see, in Sept., I think its 50 years. He and another Tom, Tom Hawk are thinking about coming over to Antwerp and having their pictures taken with me. Tom Whitney had very long hair last year and cut it off for is cousin who had cancer, and was going to grow it back long, but has decided to keep it short in support of me and my cancer. So you guys and girls who have always wanted to cut your hair off, here is and invitation to do so. I'll buy the lunch or dinner to anyone interested . I've asked my Amish friends to do it also, but I have had no takers. My son Darrin did it last summer, and he liked it. He did grow his back out, and I have not herd back form him since he found out my cancer is back. How about it D. you want to feel that ice cold winter wind on a clean shaven scalp?

Thats all for today, I let you know what up with the Chem when I hear.
