Hi Susie Q and all, My prays are with little Bethany; that is such a cute age. God will keep her always. I have those tired spells also. they just hit and you don't feel like moving. I've been taking ginseng lately, it seems to help. I've got toooooooooo many things I want to do to be tired hehe. Make sure you're getting enough rest. I think rest is so important. Go to bed early and get up early. Try to eat a good balanced died everyday. Make sure to include your dairy if you can tolerate them. If you get tired, just go with it and rest. After all, don't we deserve a rest? fighting this CML day in and day out. No wonder we're tired! Blessings to all, Jeanie<3 In a message dated 7/10/2008 12:17:06 P.M.

Thanks to all for their prayers on Bethany & her family's behalf. They are much appreciated. She goes on the eighteenth to have her port put in and her first treatment of Chemotherapy. Our church is purchasing them a gas card to help pay for their gas to and from the hospital each time to help them out financially. Her mom and dad both work, but have low paying jobs. I am 100% sure these treatments & medical care aren't going to be cheap. Bethany is very "talkative" and is a sweet, active little girl.....she talks to anyone & always has. I am sure she will do fine throughout this ordeal......but I know it will be stressful on the family. I am doing good as far as the CML goes........no more eye bleeds so far.....had a very bad bout of fatigue yesterday while out with my mom grocery shopping. Had to go and check out my stuff and sit down to wait on my 79 year old frail mother. Haven't been bothered with that too much until then. Who knows......these side affects come and go all the time. I just wished they would come and then leave for good, LOL!!! My CBC counts all looked very good......staying right around the same each time I've gone to the doctor (& I actually saw the doctor this time instead of the nurse practitioner!). She's talking about possibly stretching out my check ups up to maybe six months. That would be good, I think. Blessings to you all, Keep Looking Up, Suzieq **************Get the scoop on last night's hottest shows and the live music scene in your area - Check out TourTracker.com!
