Oh! wow! I'm so happy to hear from you and find you doing so well. I have. Even through many hurricanes and storms in my 79 years. I hate people that don't know anything about storms u. Fl telling people to evacuate. I have never evacuated in my life. Pray for all. Yes it's the electric that worries me. It could off for weeks although we have a great electric company. I think prayer is all we can do now so pray for all of us. Safer in home than car is my opinion. Glad you made it through. Did you have to be without electric for long? How is your health. I am still on Ponatinib and my doctor told me I might try going off tki for a while. I'm thinking about it unless Irma blues me away. Love you so very much and so glad to hear from you. 💋💋💋💋💋💋 My Motto: Faith and Pills With Love 🐠18's Dx 1/2004 CML Leukemia Started Gleevec 2/2004 Started Tasigna 9/2009 Started Sprycel 11/2009 Started Ponatinib 1/2015 Doctor Balducci Moffitt Cancer Center
