Monday, Monday

so good to me!
Had a good class today with Ms Norman's science students...they asked me to come in and talk about Leukemia. It was hard in the first couple of minutes, but once I got past that, everything was well and good. Her English class is reading HUNTER IN THE DARK, a story of a boy who gets sick, and his parents don't tell him what is wrong...he has Leukemia. It was interesting for the kids to learn about side effects of various drugs that Dalton is taking, similar to their main character. I took in some of his "stuff", including his radiation mask and Dial for Dining menus.
It's interesting to step back and look at the five phases from a different viewpoint, for sure. One step closer to October, 2012!
