Three AIDS Walk Panels together.

• It’s been AIDS walk week here at the end of September. Both George and I were once very much a part of the AIDS Quilt Organization. AIDS is now much different than it was then.

• I’d like to still be a part of some social thing like this, but I am getting slowed down. Right now my blood pressure is high, and my O2 saturation level is sideways. I’m fine when I am sitting…which isn’t useful at all.

• Next week my kind supporter will be keeping me company at the nurses, the Oncologist’s, to bloodwork, Dr’s Wong and Hemp, and two things on Friday.

• Life would be easier if I could read my own handwriting. At least I’ve stopped leaking tho I take 15 pills a day now.

I'm having a challenge with accepting that I am beginning to need help with things that I used to help others with... We have to learn to live with what is, and just remember what was. You did a lot for others. Yes, I did too. Now, for you, it's a waiting game. For me, not so much...
