At this Moment Prop 19 is Behind a Couple Points

Over at www.justsaynow.com Michael Whitney is reporting that
Prop 19 is behind a few points. Read the whole article here and
make sure you get out and vote Yes: http://tinyurl.com/27dhgmo

Hopefully all the University campuses in California are full of
students getting out to vote and voting yes on Prop 19. This is an
important issue that truly needs to pass this election. So if you
have not voted please go.

O'Donnell's Out Thank Goodness

Ben Evans and Randall Chase over at Huffington Post wrote this article
about Christine O'Donnells Loss to Chris Coon. Not surprising, because
she was another Sarah Palin wanna be politican that had no knowledge
about anything!!! Read the whole article here:http://tinyurl.com/2alx6ff

Everything that came out of Christine's mouth was word salad like her
sister Sarah Palin. She even tried to look like Sarah. At least some people
are smart enough to know the difference between wise and stupid and
also smart enough to get out and vote.

It takes one person and then another and another to get to the polls and
continue taking our country back from the destructive Tea Bagging losers
and the Republican fearmongering whack jobs to keep this country some
what sane and moving forward and not backward.



11 Year Old Lion King Star Die's of AML

Ula Ilnytzky over at Huffington Post has an article about this young lady
and her battle with AML and type of leukemia. She was 11 years old. My
mom died on August 30, 2010 of the same disease at 72. Read the whole
article by Ula Ilnytzky here: http://tinyurl.com/24of9lq

My mom was diagnosed with AML in August 2009 and lived a year and
a month after the initial diagnosis. She start chemotherapy immediately
after being diagnosed. Her treatments consisted of 5 days on for 30-45
minutes a day to 3 weeks off. Things looked and felt like they improved.

She was admited to the Stem Call Research Program. Her sister Darlene
was a perfect match and everyone was really excited about the news. And
then the leukemia came back in full force. The doctors said the only option
at this point was an intensive treatment of Chemotherapy.

She decided to go ahead and try it. 7 Days of Chemo 24 hours a day. When
the results came back we were all devastated. The cancer was still there.
There was nothing else the doctors could do. My mom decided to stop all
blood transfusions and go as quickly as she could.

The chemotherapy just shut her body down. Food tasted like metal and
she would throw up most of what she ate. She could not concentrate and
her organs were slowly weakening. It was a ugly sight. She took a good
fall one of her first nights home from the hospital.

Woke up with a big black and blue eye and a very swollen face. Looked
like she was in a boxing match. I knew that someone needed to sleep by
her at night but she would not have it and no one else would listen to me.
My words through her whole process were dead.

At least my mom lived 72 years this young lady was only 11 years old
with a life ahead of her. She loved acting and already was staring on
broadway. How sad for her family and those close to her. Life is a gift
and some people think there is all the time in the world.
