Diagnosis: Leukemia; August 10, 1989

I woke up at eight thirty. Alex and I had breakfast then I had a shower and got dressed.

Alex is feeling much better now. The trip had been quite hard on him, he was tired and cranky. The last few days he’s been getting a lot of sleep.

After I had my snack we went to Westwood mall to pay the MasterCard bill then we went to Pharmasave. I needed to buy a stamp to mail Kurt’s postcard. We also went to the video store to rent a couple of movies. When we got out to the car the battery was dead again. I phoned Mom and Dad since we were so close to home. I didn’t feel like phoning BCAA and waiting half an hour. Sitting around in the heat makes me feel ill. Mom and Dad came in a few minutes. They jump started the car. I had told them we could leave the car there I just didn’t want to wait for BCAA. Anyways they jump started the car and we all left.

In the afternoon I wrote in the journal and exercised. Charlie phoned while I was downstairs. He told Alex he would be home late.

I started to cook dinner at five thirty. After dinner we watched tv. Alex and I played bumper cars except Alex made up new rules. I sure don’t like when he does that, you never know if he’ll change them half way through the game again.

Alex and I had a fight while getting ready for bed. He always takes so long getting ready for bed. Then he’s so rough with me when he kisses and hugs me good night. I got mad at him, I’ve told him so many times not to do that as it hurts me. Alex cried and cried. He went to bed crying. I don’t like when he goes to bed crying. I went in a few minutes later and was able to make him laugh then he was okay.

I went to bed at eleven o’clock.
