Cookies $ Cancer Both Are Important - Tis' the Season!

Hello Fellow Travelers!

They're Back!

Winter tends to be dreary and long for me. I really dislike being chilly, I hate being cold.  I can't wait for Spring!  Winter and snow are not magical they're just friggin' cold!  One of the few great things that happen in Winter is ginger creations are available.  Gingerbread people, houses and my personal favorite:  Nyackers Ginger Thins.  I abstain from sugar as a rule, but I'll smash the doctor's orders for these!  That's how good they are.  You can pick them up at any World Market for 12 bucks!  Or on Amazon for $20!  These are the best ginger thins you can buy.  They break easy so they're no good for home building or any construction projects.  Nyackers are just great cookies.  They're light, fragrant and perfectly balanced.  An excellent partner to both tea and coffee.  They taste like winter!

The other good news I had this week is I met a new doctor.  His name is Dr. Ruben and he's an ophthalmologist.  The person who administered the eye tests, was named Dipti.  After an extensive eye exam, he came in and informed us that he couldn't help me, that eye surgery probably wouldn't relieve my double vision.  After suggesting I"cover one eye" (Captain Morgan?) we left.  Upon returning home my PS remarked the appointment "had been a waste of time".  I disagree.  Meeting Dr. Ruben means I met another doctor who knows cancer (and eyes).

Dr. Ruben removed one more question, I can eliminate one more idea.   I'll meet every doctor in California, if that is what it takes, and then if none has a solution, I'll go to a different insurance company and meet all their brain dudes.  I'll keep seeing providers until I meet the doctor who has my answer.  I know it's out there, somewhere, I just have to find it.

While my odyssey continues (longer than Viet Nam) I'll be in Heaven with Nyackers.
