I had nothing to eat from a week ago last Sunday to Tuesday. Ate Wednesday then nothing from midnight to 4:00 pm Thursday. Had a light meal then nothing (again) from midnight to Saturday night (when I finally got plain unsalted crackers). Sunday onward all week: soup, applesauce, juice and slowly working in veggies (made myself some borscht). Wooped it up with a piece of pita bread and tzatziki today. I would KILL for a donut right now.

I'm a writer at heart. When my Mom and my Dad were both battling cancer I jotted down my scared, angry feelings one night in the wee hours (which is what I tend to do). Tragic, indignant the final curtain And as end nears only pain is certain As others go on Choice? ignorance “too busy” to come So they sit on the fence Frail & tired your mind won’t keep still wrinkles hold stories of the opening bill Faded photos (but only a few) The rest of the memories stored deep within you As it feeds on you slowly then knocks you out cold Death is a vulture Heartless and bold Unforgiving Cares not who you are random selection all even par It comes unannounced Doesn’t knock upon entry Just barges right in leaves you cold, dry & empty Mindlessly numb then, unknowing, a tear too frightened to move frozen in fear Alone in the dark silent you cry can’t make a sound insides screaming why?? And amidst all the chaos you struggle for answers of this uninvited guest who calls himself cancer.

I have cards, some unopened, going back to about 1986 now. We have a Lemieux rookie card that's in great shape. My brother used to collect and do card shows (we met Trevor Linden at one) and years ago it was priced at $400. I have suitcases full of prime memorabilia. ESSO sets, 7-11 coins...any promotional thing that came out, we were all in. My dream was that one day my son could open a card/memorabilia shop. Problem is...we don't want to part with any of it!
