Heart Dew in AZ

Hi All,
I arrived in AZ last Thursday. I started flaring Thursday morning,in the plane. I meditated myself into a non-stress zone, and before I knew it, I was here in AZ.
I just have to remember to take my meds on time...and I will be ok.

AZ time is 2 hrs behind OK time, and I am just now getting my barrings to keep a timed med schedule. I was awake from 6 AM Thursday til 3AM Saturday morning...then I collapsed ad slept like a baby, for 6 hrs.

It is so hot here,OMG! Yesterday, I was in the pool for over 7 hrs..hidden under a huge palm tree leaf, like a perch, in a lake,lol! I had two swim sessions of about 3 1/2 hrs each...I love the pool. I slept 8 hrs after my swim day..that is a miracle for me!!! Being outside for that amount of time is more than I have accomplished in over a year.

Thursday night I constructed a blog for my sister, Wanda, concerning her journey through the pancreatic cancer surgery. It is a place for her family and friends, and others, to watch over her as she deals with this culprit.
the blog site is :

Check it out, let me know what you think.

The surgery is early tomorrow morning,7/13/09; it is suppose to take 4-5 hrs, the surgery in itself...trying to get myself prepared for the day, in so many ways.

Wanda is really amazing with her positive attitude and unyielding spirit. She wears me out just observing her. Wanda used the palms of my hands as a heating pad on her sore knees(arthritis)..and tummy. Wanda is blown away at the rate of heat that my body puts out..guess RSD is good for something

Miss you all,
Dew
