Diagnosis: Leukemia; August 12, 1989

I woke up at eight o’clock. I didn’t sleep very well last night. Kelly barked and howled every half hour or so. Kelly wasn’t feeling very well and he wanted to come upstairs. I don’t like him to come up in case he has a seizure and falls down the stairs.

After I had given Kelly his medicine I had a shower and got dressed.

Alex woke up at eight thirty. We had our breakfast then I tidied up the house.

Shirley phoned at ten o’clock. I asked her what had happened to them last night. She said after the movie they wanted to go somewhere they could sing “happy birthday” to Monique. So they went to the Keg but by the time they left it was midnight. She said I was going to phone but I didn’t think it would take so long.

I said well are going to be home this afternoon? Shirley said they were having a picnic at Lions Park between twelve and six o’clock. People were suppose to be there no later than one o’clock. She kept on asking me what I could eat. I said I’ll just bring a sandwich.

We got there at one thirty. Only a few kids were there, Brent’s cousins. I found it very tiring as I had to keep an eye on Alex while he played at the playground. Shirley kept on asking me if she could get me something. I said no I’m fine.

We left at three thirty after the cake and Monique had opened her presents, Alex was mad that we had to leave, he wouldn’t even say good bye.

We went to the bank, London Drugs and the pet store. I bought my diabetic supplies which came to $45.44.

We got home shortly after four o’clock. Charlie had gotten home few minutes before us.

Mom phoned at four thirty and invited us for dinner. We went there at five o’clock. I’m afraid I wasn’t very good company. The birthday party earlier had really tired me out.

We came home at nine thirty. I went right to bed Charlie got Alex his snack and ready for bed.
