I've started receiving some of your altered photos of me with hair, and they are hilarious!!! OMG, you guys are really something. I am so glad that I got this idea (it seemed 'some' were getting bored of sitting idle or commenting in a line or two.) It has unleashed the talents in you (well, to some they were never on a leash, really, but bear with me, I am trying to be funny!) I will be receiving pictures on my hotmail account until Sunday midnight (whatever time zone u happen to be in), and then I will try to rearrange them in a way everyone can see them on the blog. Then I will TRY to choose the best one, but I doubt I'll be able to (they're only 5 so far, and I can't). We'll see, maybe we'll let the readers decide in a poll or sth (if I knew how!). Frances and Bobbie have been kind enough to post an 'ad' of this challenge on their blogs, inviting yet more people to join in. WoW! Thanks ladies. (But pls make sure that ur readers know that the deadline is Sunday midnight).
Rima Koleilat, come on down!!! Congratulations, you have spotted the pun and you get to take home with you a box of delicious dark chocolate brownies by Cocoa & Co. Applause Applause Applause
If you are still wondering what it was, well, it's ALL: Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (the type I have)
Ok, so Day 12 today (it's Day 12 to me now, but I guess you'll be reading it tomoro, which will be Day 13). Dr Potter passed by to see how I was doing. he told me everything was under control and congratulated me on taking ALL (got it now?) the pain with such bravery. ya lateef! wlak shoo hal Hala. Ufff! I'm just glad it's controllable, hamdillah, and that I still have some energy left to get through it ALL :) God willing. It's addictive this ALL. I survived ALL.
Those of you who have been following up this week will have noticed something different tonight. I am SOBER!!! eeeeeeewwwww. I haven't ordered the extra Morphine I am allowed a day. habla! I woulda been in la-la land now!!! But, yalla, maalesh (4 u Mo), cuz I didn't need any which means I am getting better, hamdilla!
Yiiiy, it's almost midnight now. The nurse is on her way to take my obs. Hope all's well. (temp been playing a bit between 37 and 38. I just hope they find the reason why.
good night,
waiting for u tomoro,
love u ALL

Wow - even with no morphine, you sound great! Is your doctor's first name Harry? In which case, let's hope he's done some magic there, hehe...
Seriously, you sound like you're stronger and even, dare I hope, feeling better! Yallah, inshallah kelshi kheir.
As for the artwork, I will make another "wall" for you at the gallery - that way you don't have to choose, you can have all of them! framed and everything!
I'm still working on mine - be patient!! some of us will be using paper and pen(cil)! At least I hope I will...
Keep up the good work, I really hope you are now on an upswing. Ya habibti, I wish you a very good night tonight and an even better day when you wake up.
Love
Yay! The days are rolling by and soon you will be back home with your babies in your arms...yes I know they don't think they are babies, but well to a mother they are.
Your Auntie Rima is pretty cool to do a wall for the artwork. It will be fun to see all the submissions. Yes, dear, I am working on mine, but remember that I am a great-grannie and therefore very slow.
God keep blessing you and keeping the evil eye far away from you. I'll be praying for you later before bed and asking God to take good care of you tonight.
Good morning
