Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Cancer / July 2006Arrived In Houston
We are here in Houston. The RV park is very nice. Quiet. They say 75% of the campers are under the medical rate. The RV park has a free shuttle to the major medical centers here. I met two cancer patients while walking the dog. We agreed that we need to start a support group. It might be a good idea to just share with others for a little while in the late afternoons. What do you all think about it? It would take my mind off of my self. For my fellow Americans, here's a website you might enjoy on Independence Day. For our UK, friends, sorry <g> http://www.purewatergazette.net/asimov.htm I will try to keep you all informed with my evaluation process at MD Anderson.

Maybe Happy hour? Is there a pool to gather around? It's nice to have community instead of just isolated hotel room. Thinking of you lots. Hope all goes well.

Just a laundry room, computer room/library. Not even a shower house or public rest room. All units have to be self-contained. Not much here for the kiddies which keeps it nice and quite. <g> > Thinking of you lots. Hope all goes well.

We celebrated Canada Day on July 1st. J >> We are here in Houston. The RV park is very nice. Quiet. They say 75% of >> the campers are under the medical rate.

In the Eastern USA, it's 'tag sales.' Here in the West, it's 'garage sales.' I say, call it what you will, just get rid of all that clutter!!! A friend is having a pre-garage sale - serving breakfast & lunch to all who come to help her sort through garage accumulations. We get 1st pick of anything we might want. Then she will spend equal time with each of us, helping with our icky tasks. >> [...] >> > We celebrated Canada Day on July 1st. > J And we celebrated Independence Day July 4!!!

At the risk of being flamed for being political, it seems to me we're subjugating ourselves to the US - and I don't like it. Not, you understand, because it's the US: I wouldn't like it whoever it was. I feel the same about the EU, but to a lesser extent. Or maybe it's just the marriage between Bush and Blair that I distrust... > me@privacy.net said... > > > We celebrated Canada Day on July 1st.

Yeah, we celebrate losing wars all the time here in the USA - marching bands, pagentry, speeches, yeah right!!! Fig, who recognizes sour grapes for what they are btw, some here think USA's days in the sun are coming to an end. Socks did. And it's more than just Shrub. figtoes@yahoo.com said... > > me@privacy.net said... > > > > We celebrated Canada Day on July 1st.

Socks > did. And it's more than just Shrub. I've got to be honest, the combination of Dubya and the bLiar is a truly terrifying one. Trouble is that here in the UK we don't have a viable alternative to replace the bLiar - and that's even more scary :-( I think I'll run away to sea. > I think I'll run away to sea.

Friends bring things; then say "have a yard sale for anything you don't want" So now I've got more "clutter" to clear out. :p > >> [...] > >> > > We celebrated Canada Day on July 1st. > > > And we celebrated Independence Day July 4!!!

I think it's an excellent idea Janet. I've not been to any support groups myself but my mother attends one locally and finds it very valuable. She was introduced to the NG a while back but she's not interested in being involved here. She does appreciate the fact that there are people out there rooting for her though :-) SignatureEm |
