Well, I haven't written for a long while, so tonight when I answered a meds question, I thought I'd better put pen to paper.

       I'm starting a new job rehab program this week and my case manager seems to think I'll do well.        I hope so.       It would be nice to work again, as my part-time janitorial work was 3 years ago and I haven't worked since due to back trouble.       Anyway, this rehab program apparently knows all about your problems and the employer accommodates the job to them.      Interesting idea.

A break to take meds and have a smoke!

My mother had her 80th birthday last weekend.  Amazing woman.    So much energy for her years.     I hope I live that long.

I once heard a song that went "with a gratitude attitude all day long".   That's all I remember of it.     And when the time comes, and when I feel that in spite of the busy day, the friends, the family, I'm still all alone with my illness, I just remember that song and I start to feel good.

Peace,

Don Fraser
