My insurance has approved my Gleevec! Now I just have to wait for the paperwork to flow through the proper channels and get to my local pharmacy. That could be a few days.

It’s snowing again, and all sorts of people are sledding on the hill. It’s FREEZING and the wind is blowing. Later today, we’re supposed to get freezing rain.

I’m not going outside, and I’ve got an excuse. Yesterday, my lunch burrito decided that it wasn’t food, and it made its way out of my body. Food poisoning is no fun. My guess is that the 22°F outside temperature and the blowing wind brought down the temperature of the warming tables and grew Clostridium perfringens in the beans or the chicken. Just my luck. On the plus side, I got a nice, restful sleep.
