Dear Deb,
I don't know anything about the tamoxifen. And from
the way it sounds I don't want to know about it. LoL
Isn't the Canadian money pretty? The bills I mean.
Nice and colorful. The coins are confusing at first.
Change can really add up with the $2.00 coins and
$1.00 coins.
What all did your son do while he was there?
I am not a member of a support group yet. I know
someone at work who is going to a cancer center here.
I am going to check with her next week when I get
back. I wish you luck on the job offer. The company I
work for has this contract until November. I am not
sure what is going to happen after that. I hope I
qualify for the insurance part if a new company takes
over. Or if I end up moving to Knoxville I hope I can
find a job that will accept me.
Talk soon
Your friend
Diane
