Why am I not the thinnest woman on Earth?

Dr. appt. on Monday. He said that I need off the steroids asap. That there are a few other drugs that will help with the graft vs. host.

In the meantime, I'm sick as a dog. I'm now a hermit. I also will be getting a lovely upper and lower GI and an endoscopy sometime in the near future.

I am done talking about this. It's just very unfun.

Zoe was crying yesterday because no one has signed up to join her Team Zoe team. There are only 3 people on her team so far. I've been too sick to go ask her Principal if the school could be a part of the Light the Night walk. Oh well. I'll keep trying.

I know not everyone is comfortable asking for donations, but I would be happy just to have people walk with us or buy the Team Zoe t-shirts (Zoe just got her new one and it is super cute!)

I know that a few of you have also bought Debutaunt shirts, but for some reason it's not showing up in my sales report. Which stinks because the $5 goes directly to me (obviously I'm not getting rich off of this - lol) Let me know if you bought one, so I can ask Cafepress what the dealio is.

Ok. Cleaning my room today since I'm being a hermit.

I can do this. I get to expose my innerds soon.

You assignment today is to sign up on Team Zoe if you are going to walk with us. Even if you only raise $1, we'd love to see you.

When I got sick, I didn't have any typical symptoms of Leukemia. Sometimes it is hard to know because the symptoms are so similar to other disorders. I had a headache, but it was a sinus infection - and that is what saved my life - they did a blood test.

Signs and Symptoms of Leukemia

The first indications of leukemia often are nonspecific or vague. They may occur with other cancerous as well as noncancerous disorders. Although signs and symptoms vary for each type of leukemia, there are some general features. Broad symptoms of leukemia may include:

Abnormal bleeding
Excessive bruising
