Doing good. Today is day #10 of me not smoking.
The absolute hardest time, when I really crave one, is after dinner.
After any meal I want one, but dinner is the hardest. My new addiction:
Yogurt covered raisins ;-) Very yummy, and I don't have to step outside to have one.
Monday night, I will sleep over at the Baumanns house, and then bright and
early Tuesday, we head to the airport, for our annual visit to NIH. It will be me, Craig & Garrett Baumann traveling together. Wednesday & Thursday will be MRI's, etc. I have an appt in the vision clinic, I hope I can talk the eye doc into updating my glasses prescription.
Craig & Garrett will head home Thursday night. I will be admitted to the hospital for surgery Friday. Don't worry, it is a minor surgery. Dr. A is going to remove this annoying, bothersome tumor on the inside of my wrist. Geo arrives Friday evening; they have a room reserved for him at the Safra family lodge, on the NIH campus. I heard it is nice, anybody been there?
If everything goes smooth (it will) I will be discharged Saturday, and we shall fly home. See ya next week ;-)
BARK~!

- WHEN MY FATHER MARRIED MY MOTHER, SHE HAD 2 CHILDREN ALREADY, DAN & VICKI. MY MOTHER DIED WHEN I WAS 3. MY DAD WAS THEN A 50 YEAR OLD ALCOHOLIC. HE SOLD EVERYTHING AND DROVE TO CA, TAKING ME ALONG. HE LEFT DAN & VICKI. MY MOTHERS MOM ADOPTED THEM. OVER THE YEARS I ASKED ABOUT MY BRO & SIS MANY TIMES. THAT SUBJECT WAS TABOO, HE WOULD NOT TALK ABOUT IT. OR ABOUT MY MOTHER. HE DIED WHEN I WAS 17 OF CIRRHOSIS. SO 19 YEARS AFTER SEEING MY SIBLINGS I GET A LETTER, FROM DAN SAYING "I THINK YOU ARE MY LONG LOST LITTLE SISTER. PLEASE CONTACT ME. BY THE WAY I AM DEAF." HE WAS IN VA BUT FLEW TO CA TO MEET ME. HE ALSO TOOK ME TO MY SISTERS HOUSE TO MEET HER & HER DAUGHTER,(MY NIECE - RHIANON, WHO IS NOW ON CREW) & THEN ON TO MY GRANDMOTHERS HOUSE. THEY ALL LIVED ABOUT 5 HRS FROM ME IN CA. I SPENT A SUMMER WITH DAN IN VA. I HAD NEVER SEEN A PICTURE OF MY MOTHER, HE GAVE ME MANY.IT WAS A VERY EMOTIONAL TIME. IN 1992, I HAD MRI'S & WAS DX'ED WITH NF2. I HAD ZERO SYMPTOMS UNTIL 1997. MY MOTHER DIED IN 1971, DAN & VICKI DIED IN 1995. ALL DIED DUE TO NF2 RELATED CRAP. MY MOTHER INHERITED NF2 FROM HER DAD.
