My goodness I cant believ it will take that long. Thank the Lord

you dont need a Heart Cath; you could die waiting. When will you

get the result of the biopsies the other day? Is there no way you

can have it done earlier. Is there a list that you can put your

name on in the event of a cancellation? Is that how it is will all

test and procedures done in the UK?

We may have a whole butt load of problems with our health care

system but its timely. Well for me it is, I am of the fortunate few

who have very good insurance. My husband is in a well established

union. He's a Longshoreman; I dont know if ya'll have those there,

but it is a very strong union.

I wish I was doing well, I am taking the demerol around the clock,

200mg will last me about 5 hours so thats not so bad. I hate when

it wakes me up though, it takes forever to fall back asleep.

Sometimes I'll just wait, or watch TV but my favorite thing to do

while waiting is I have a peice of dental floss, clean, that I run

along my husbands sleeping face, he makes the funniest faces and

actions. I like to tickle his nose expecially, he crinkles it up,

tries to rub it, misses, does this little blow thing, cracks me up.

He doesn't wake up though even with my laughing. Makes the time

pass quickly while waiting for the demerol to kick in.

The church ladies sent home dinner again yesterday, roast pork loin,

bisquits, macaroni and cheese and salad. I had to taste the pork

and macaroni, just to see if it is better then mine, NOT! But it

put a hurting on me, and it was just a taste. Well at any rate, my

pork would NEVER be that dry...lol. Every Tuesday they send a meal

and it is enough for 2 days, no small tasks for a family of 5. My

family really enjoys it and cooking is kinda difficult for me right

now with the pain and nausea. Shoot just one taste had me in the

bed moaning and groaning. I guess I better stick with my popsicles

and fat free frozen yogurt.

I'm sorry you have to wait so long. Are you in any additional

pain? I hope not, Jac. Please take care and know that my thought

are and have always been with you.

Love,

Chrissy
