Hi guys:

First, I did an interview for the local daily paper this week, about A
Hole in the Hedge, the shortlisting, being a Big Sister.... They also
interviewed my Little Sister; and we're supposed to get photographed
Monday.

A city TV news program has booked a 4-minute interview with me on June
1. Aiiieee. I expressed my concern about a live coughing fit. They
agreed to tape it ahead of time, which makes me more comfortable.
Assuming my breathing/coughing doesn't get so bad I can't talk (that
happens!)

Best yet, my publisher is going to publish A Walk in the Park, sequel to
A Hole in the Hedge. (Don't rush out to buy it... it's a long process!)
Book 3 will be about a teen who's suddenly struck with Lupus....so we'll
talk....
....and talk....

Grace.

p.s. I see my rheumatologist Monday. My lungs are terrible, but we're
going with that NOT being rheumatological... so it will be interesting
what he thinks of my Lupus post-transplant. I think the conservative
answer is I'm in remission and we'll see....anyhow, I'll tell you what
he ACTUALLY says.
I see the cancer doctor on Wed., re. my MRI, and lungs....I see the lung
specialist at the end of the month....but the cancer doctor pages
him...and they talk....

Congratulations Grace!
You are our star!
Let us know what to look out for to find your interviews re
papers and tv channel..... BC is different than Alta. I believe?
Keep us updated on those doc appts. too!
Good luck with everything!
hugs from Shelagh

Hope all goes well with the doctor appointments.

Heh. Did I mention that I'm hyped up on prednisone (40 mg, from none -- a
treatment for an asthma attack)? We'll look at tapering off at my appt. Wed.
"If it's not working, you'll come off more quickly."

And my inlaws are here.

And it's 2 a.m.

I'm prednisone-manic.

:)

G.
p.s. I was horrified to hear they were trying prednisone; all-the-while the
addict in me was going "yes, yes, give me the drugs...."

p.p.s. I'm eating, eating -- because I want to, because I can -- I want to
weigh in at 100 pounds Wednesday.... (I never thought I'd be here... I'm back
to a childhood weight)

Eat then get to bed ..that's an order OR how to gain weight the easy way.
Hugs Grace, I just woke up and you're not even in bed? Yikes pred-manic is right.
