Beth, get out the heating pad make sure it's a big one they make different sizes. I go fishing under the bridge going over to Sanibel sometimes. If you do come down here we will get together that's for sure. Just get better. My son Derek's wife Ruby, she has a massage and yoga wellness studio 118 North Clinton St., Suite 102 in Chicago. It's called Massage Evolved. website (massageevolved.com). They started a little over a year ago and seem to be doing very good. He called me over the weekend and told me about the snow. You miss Florida and I'm sorry I don't miss North West Indiana because of that weather. Summer is just to short up their, Grace and my bones can't take it. Plus getting sick with a cold. But Grace want's so purchase a small house or condo up their for the summer so we would miss the real hot months down here. It would only be for 4 to 5 months. That way we could visit with our grand kids and our kids. I can remember when I first found out that I had CML, it was to weeks before xmas 1998. I asked the doctor at that time how much time I had and she said between 1 1/2 to 2 years. She put me on hydra then she sent me to Northwestern to see doctor Tallman and he put me in a study with interferon which almost killed me it was that bad. They stopped it after 3 months because I told him I couldn't take be that sick anymore. So they stopped the study early..I wanted to die, a short time he called me to put me in another study called STI571. Their was only 8 of us and I was the only one from Indiana plus the oldest of the 7. The study had 200 people from the US and this was the only country using STI571. And here I am after 15 years still driving everyone crazy. It's funny how things turn out, I call it faith. You just got to hang in their things will get better it won't happen over night. greenie In a message dated 2/3/2015 6:03:14 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, cmlhope@googlegroups.com writes:

It's crazy...and now..it also got very cold...below zero wind chills last night..so lots of ice...ah winter.... I was dreaming last night about the causeway between Fort Myers and Sanibel...watching the Osprey soar, seeing dolphin in the water...the pelicans sitting on wood stumps along the water...snowy egrets..and then I woke up!!! Must get back there soon one day...maybe at the end of this year...hope to meet you when I do. Will look to hear from you about your test results tomorrow.
