Happy Birthday, Marty and Shelly. I hope that it was a wonderful one for both of you. My daughters would have been the 19th had she lived. It was a rough day for me as no one else seemed to remember. It has been over 30 years, so that's a long time. I still grieve my own way though.
Other then that, I've been having a very hard time and most of the time can't move my arms much. I am going to call pain management today and see if there isn't something that they can do to help me control the pain I'm in. I've tried everything I can think of, but for about 4 days now haven't been able to do much of anything. Reaching for the salt and pepper, or anything makes the pain unbearable. I do have an appointment with my Oncologist soon, but am calling tomorrow and postponing it. I just can't do it because I can't use my transport chair. I can't get out of it and the last time, it took me 20 min. or more to get into the car because I can't use my arms for anything. I'm really not complaining (although it sure sounds like it) :>), but do need to figure this out so that I can fight all of the other things that I have going on. Some of you have it much much worse and I know that. I keep you all in my prayers and would appreciate the same from you at this time. Talk to you all soon. Marty, I am still praying that you are doing well, and can get everything you need to go on with your life. It seems like we were meant to be fighters. If it isn't the CML, it's something else. The good news is we're still here and have the ability to fight everything that is happening with us. Let us know how it's going with you and your testing, etc. Again, Happy belated Birthday to both you and your Shelly. Many hugs, prayers, and 18's, Millie ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marty Gartenberg" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, May 21, 2014 10:01:00 PM Subject: [CMLHope] May 21st Well, it's May 21st which is my first and second birthday.
