Diagnosis: Leukemia; December 16, 1988

I woke up at nine o’clock. Alex and I had breakfast then I had a shower and got dressed. Then I did the dishes and tided up the house so I could vacuum the house.

We left at noon and went to the mall. We had lunch their and went to the Bay to get Alex’s pictures. They turned out not too bad, he looks a bit pale. I don’t know if it’s his shirt or if he was pale that day, probably the later.

The rest of the afternoon we didn’t do much. Charlie went to work at two thirty.

Alex and I went to Dairy Queen for dinner. Then we went to Mom and Dad’s. we stayed for a couple of hours and came home.

Alex went to bed at nine o’clock. I watched TV then I phoned Shirley and left a message on her answering service. She had phoned me last Sunday. She had wanted to get together but told me that Brent had bronchitis and Monique had tonsillitis. At that time I had said that I didn’t want to take a chance. She said she would phone in a few days which she never did. I guess she was annoyed because I said what are you going to do about Saturday? She didn’t say much, then she said well they’re on antibiotics so they should be okay. Then she said what are you going to do about Saturday. I was so taken back I didn’t say anything.

Anyways I left a message which she didn’t call me back, so I phoned Aaron to ask about the kids. He said they were doing better. I told him Charlie had decided that it was best to sit by ourselves. Aaron said no you can sit with us the kids will sit at one end and you can sit at the other end. We kept on going over and over until finally he agreed it would be better. He said Shirley had a terrible cold.

Then I watched TV and went to bed.
