I just watched the newest Monster High vid. If they make an Emily Ann doll I will sell my mother to buy her.

I've had moments where I wanted to chop my hands off because they hurt so much, thought about opening a direct line to my lungs in hopes of getting them the oxygen they so desperately craved, but I think this is the first time in my life I've ever wanted to cut my own heart out. I am so tired of feeling it beat! And I know that is such a weird ( Read more... )

Finally got in to see my Cardiologist this morning. I really like her, I think she's one of the best heart docs I've seen over my entire lifetime - though to be fair I don't really remember the ones from my younger years when I was Bubble Girl - but I now understand why she is perpetually behind.

Day Two: All the veggies you can eat except for peas and corn, and a baked potato with a bit of butter.
