Wed. night

Here I am, again.  Please pray for my friend.  She's near death but I believe in miracles, especially after the one that occurred with Ryan Kelly this summer.  Sharon is on dialysis now and if God will allow, she'll be able to start chemo sometime.  I haven't seen her in a month but plan to go on Friday; the hospital is in St. Pete, 25 miles away.  This is very hard for me.  Just got a call and Sharon has kidney function, Praise God; she's been moved out of ICU!

Margie~~Has your sister had her tonsils removed?  What is PeriTonsilitis?  You see, I have many of the same symptoms.  Soreness on the left side of my throat, at the bottom of my throat and some difficulty swallowing pills.  I've been to the doctor several times; had a strep test (negative) and told to see an ENT.  She also said it could be interference from my VNS which is on that side, allergies (constant post-nasal drip) or growths on my vocal cords.  The problem is, the hospital system here is dropping my insurance (UnitedHealthcare) in two weeks; they're in a big re-imbursement battle so even if I do go to the ENT, he can't order any tests.  So, I'm just curious, is this something that occurs with people who still have their tonsils or not?  Mine were removed when I was 4.

DWTS~~Bummer that Giles got the boot!  He was good and sexy and French and all that.  I missed the show b/c I thought it started at 9 but, in any case, I was tied up on the phone about my friend Sharon.  Jimmy Fallon was really upset b/c he predicted Giles as the winner in the beginning of the season and yesterday was Jimmy's b-day.

Well, I need to eat dinner.  Once again, it's 9 when I do it!
