Emeraude & I went to watch Lloyd play volleyball tonight. It’s not actually volleyball season (he’s also in badminton these days) but it is his sport of choice and I love to watch him enjoying himself so much. It was great. [Read more]
Well, my treatment was definitely successful…I’ve been scared too say that, scared to jinx it, scared that I might be wrong and have it fade after just a day or two but it would seem that I am free – for now. Last night I even went in for a shot of Dilaudid, partly worried [Read more]
What a wonderful day! When we first arrived, I realized that the mittens Emeraude had werestill wet and Danile offered to come back to my (the kids) house and pick up a dry pair so Emeraude went along. I sat there for a while waiting before realizing this was my opportunity to go up on [Read more]
After 2 hours of arguing with Dr.Crawford about increasing my pain meds, the discussion turned to Tuesday’s (tomorrow) appointment and that I was hoping to suggest giving my IV Solumedrol treatments again (they failed in January but that was a full 3 months ago and my body might have lost [Read more]
I had gone for my pain meds about an hour and a half earlier and was in pretty good shape so Emeraude & I went to the hill at Friends (bakery/coffeshop) and had a blast. It was so warm out I didn’t even need gloves, she was in a super sliding mood and had me [Read more]
Emeraude is resting for 1/2 hour to give me a chance to build up a little energy… It’s a really bad day, more fatigue than I have dealt with in a long time, I think there may be stress factors contributing to this situation, hopefully some fresh air fun with my girl will help with [Read more]
Sunday, March 8th, was a beautiful day and I intended to take advantage of it and did! It took most of the day to get to the fun outside part but towards the end of the afternoon (after groceries and the hospital of course – more painwere finally on our way out into the snow. Lloyd [Read more]
Still having fatigue issues (living with 7 hour days at best) and needing too many trips to the ER for pain meds to be able to use what little time I do have living. I was so happy to make it out sliding with Emeraude yesterday (thanks to supper @ Mom’s that I didn’t need [Read more]
...word spread fast that anyone wearing a helmet could enter their name into a free draw to win an I-Pod Touch... [Read more]
A very long day, faster paced than I like to live through but all in all it went well. I started the day at the hospital, getting pain meds after having taking oral meds to no avail around 6:30am and it looks like my day will most likely finish with a trip there as well [Read more]
I was dissapointed this morning when I looked through the Chronicle Journal realizing they did not print any photos or the article I sent yesterday. I worked my butt off to make the submission in plenty of time for it to be added to the paper feeling that there had been such planning and effort [Read more]
Frosty Days wound up Sunday with box races at the Kiwissa Ski Centre and snowmobile drag races on Manitouwadge Lake. Both events were very well attend and helped work up some big appetites for the bean supper held as a fundraiser by Manitouwadge’s Cancer Assistance Group. An enthusiastic crowd [Read more]

Last year, 2008, Ontario had it’s first official Family Day which was put in place fufilling an election promise from Premier Dalton McGuinty. It is great to see that, in Manitouwage, this is being taken to heart with the majority of businesses/services (including all the schools, the OEYC [Read more]
Well, it’s Ontario Family Day today and I am grateful to be well enough to attempt a day of skiing but after last week’s IVIg quite dissapointed not to be in better shape… Tuesday, the ISMC (International Snowmobile Media Council – yes I am a member) came through as part of [Read more]
