Well let me put it this way... you surely wouldn't want to deal with this
problem that is for sure... the only good thing that is coming of it so far
is that I am losing a great deal of weight! So far I have dropped over 70
pounds and still dropping! The not so good thing is that I am tired a lot
and my energy levels definitly deplete rapidly and I find myself exhausted
but not sleepy ... I am hand quilting a couple of quilts right now
and they do not require that I expend a great deal on physical energy so that
is good... I still tend to over do things though and I have to watch myself
there... ... Sandy Colby and Jerry and a couple others here try real
hard to sit on me and make me behave ...
My illness is somewhat serious I suppose, but I am not going to let it get
me down... I have a pancreatic tumor that is most likely beign... I have
opted not to have surgery to remove it so I will continue to be symptomatic
as long as the tumor is there... so I have to watch my diet and medications
closely for now... and who knows maybe later on I will change my mind and
consider other options. .. but believe me I am not at all going to let
this thing get to me and bring me down! I don't have the time for that!!!
I hope you are able to get the block done that you mentioned you were going
to try to do... even if you decline being in the drawing the more blocks
the more successful and fun the exchanges are!!!! And we need every one that
we can get!!!
Julia
